Husbands
A comedy about life, death and freedom.
Directed by John Cassavetes
Produced by Faces Music, Columbia Pictures
A character-driven meditation on mortality, male friendship, and the tension between freedom and responsibility, blending comedic moments with existential weight.
A common friend's sudden death brings three men, married with children, to reconsider their lives and ultimately leave the country together. But mindless enthusiasm for regained freedom will be short-lived.
