"People compare Cassavetes to jazz because his films are lively, vivid, and bursting with energy, and Criterion packs this two-disc set of Faces with extras bursting with vitality. Enthusiasts will be pleased."

"Cassavetes was interested in actors and their freak-show intensities, and their performances give his films a hyper-real quality."

"Haynes uses the antiquated style without winking, and begs questions of whether a modern filmmaker can actually recreate Sirk without reinventing it in the process. Fused through Haynes’s modern sensibility it becomes something Other."
