Faces

1968 · 130 min Drama
7.1 / 10 · TMDB

Middle-aged suburban husband Richard abruptly tells his wife, Maria, that he wants a divorce. As Richard takes up with a younger woman, Maria enjoys a night on the town with her friends and meets a younger man. As the couple and those around them confront a seemingly futile search for what they've lost -- love, excitement, passion -- this classic American independent film explores themes of aging and alienation.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

This is quietly operating cinema. No big events, no crisis turns — just people and how they live through what happens to them.

Strengths: atmosphere, actors, accuracy of detail. Weaknesses: the pace isn't for everyone, the ending may feel unresolved.

For people who watch films for feeling, not entertainment.

Director: John Cassavetes

Best Watched

Viewing atmosphere: An evening when your mind is at peace. With someone you can sit in silence with after. Wine or tea.
