Love Streams is a solitary film by an unorthodox filmmaker. As we weave through this emotional labyrinth, and wander through an endless sequence of dimly lit rooms, frantic car rides, and the occasional perfectly framed still, we see characters who are in desperate need to give love and to be loved.
John Cassavetes's "Love Streams" is the kind of movie where a woman brings home two horses, a goat, a duck, some chickens, a dog, and a parrot, and you don't have the feeling that the screenplay is going for cheap laughs.
