520    Among filmmakers and film buffs, Cassavetes is revered. A 
       major star of live television in the 1950s, he stumbled 
       accidentally into making his first film, Shadows, while 
       leading an acting workshop--and created a template for 
       working outside the system that would produce some of the 
       most piercing and human films of the next thirty years, 
       including Faces, Husbands, and A woman under the 
       influence. Turning his back on Hollywood, he became the 
       prototypical outsider, fighting the system, financing and 
       ultimately distributing his films himself, at a time when 
       there was no apparatus to get a non-studio film into 
       theaters around the country. His life and work are 
       examined in this biography, with cooperation from his wife
       and muse Gena Rowlands and others of this inner circle, to
       reveal just how daring and forward-thinking he was.--From
