London. 2001. British Film Institute. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0851708358. 96 pages. paperback. keywords: Film. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Shadows, John Cassavetes' first film, ends with the title card-‘The film you have just seen was an improvisation. ' Shortly before Cassavetes' death, however, he confessed to Ray Carney something he had never before revealed-that much of his so-called ‘masterpiece of improvisation' was actually written by him and Robert Alan Aurthur, a professional Hollywood screenwriter. For Carney, it was Cassavetes' ‘Rosebud. ' He spent ten years tracking down the surviving members of the cast and crew and piecing together the true story of the making of the film. This book is the result of that research. Carney takes the reader behind the scenes to follow every step in the creation of the film-chronicling the hopes and dreams, the struggles and frustrations, and the ultimate triumph of their collaboration on one of the seminal masterworks of American independent film-making. ‘Ray Carney is a tireless researcher who probably knows more about the shooting of Shadows than any other living being, including Cassavetes when he was alive, since Carney, after all, has the added input of ten or more of the film's participants who remember their own unique versions of the reality we all shared. '-Maurice McEndree, producer and editor of Shadows. inventory #34792.
