MUBI's take

All the world is a stage, and all the men and women are in a perpetual state of crisis in John Cassavetes’s soul-baring portrait of the acting life. Supporting Gena Rowlands’s electrifying performance is the legendary Joan Blondell, whose presence draws a profound link between Old and New Hollywood.
