I had to get a couple hours of sleep after this movie. So devastating, it killed my soul. Great performances and brutally realistic.

"This film offers a uniquely sympathetic outlook on the topic of mental illness. John Cassavetes' direction and Gena Rowlands' performance are both especially breathtaking. "

The Best Movies Ever, chosen by 94 actors (110 movies items)

" Quote: My favorite -- my number one favorite, actually -- is A Woman Under the Influence. is just... I respect and admire her so much as an actress. I just think that performance is so brave and extraordinary. It was one of those things that, as a woman, as an actress, I kind of appreciate, you know. And also, that film is kind of a really, truly independent film. I think Cassavetes financed it, I think Peter Falk put money into it; kind of no one really believed in it. I was in a film a coup"
