kailey’s review published on Letterboxd:
it was the ending that got me. the main character telling his sister that he loved her and would take care of her and begging her not to go before she disappeared into the rain. except i think that was also john cassavetes telling gena rowlands, six months after a fatal diagnosis, how he couldn't have done this without her and that the love would always be there, regardless if their films lived on or melted into a jukebox and blurry colors as it poured outside. he said goodbye in the final frame by waving at us. gena maybe never encapsulated her legacy so neatly. like the film, she strode in like a hurricane, told us that love was all that mattered, and eventually left us to come to our own conclusions. she never pandered, never softened, never let us forget the weight of the women that lumbered on screen. she was cigarette smoke and softening eyes. she held the hand of every actress that came behind her. she was everything and she said goodbye and she knew that her films wouldn't just disappear into the rain. thank you, gena. you and john are finally reunited in the continuous stream.
