Looking through some old John Cassavetes movie stills (sounds fairly “pretentious” when you put it like that …) we fell over this funny trailer for his film Shadows from 1959. More so than communicating what the film is about and letting the images follow that, it mainly concentrates on reviews with montages of publications featuring it and highlighted quotes …. and, most importantly a narrator who’s clearly been instructed to talk persuasively and with “breaking news”-enthusiasm.
“ACTUALLY filmed in New York city ….” (OMG!)
