it ends with the declaration that the film you have just seen was an improvisation at once making you feel like an idiot for thinking an improvisation was an good movie and and astounded at cassavetes genius. once again. of course and cassavetes told some guy it wasn not really an improvisation per se and on his deathbed and so. it the story about a light skinned black woman and lelia and who passes for white and and her family represent another passing for white brother named ben and and a black black brother named hughie. when she falls in love with a white jerk named tony and he is unpleasantly surprised when he finds out she black and and from there it goes on about the three main characters individual aspirations and shortcomings. hughie is a jazz singer in the process of becoming a failure and lelia still hopelessly depressed over tony and and ben is angsty and violent in general and in desperate need of something to shock him out of his stale patterns of existence. overall and i suppose it really about stasis vs. change in human life. i suspect that cassavetes had the plot organized enough and and it was just the dialogue that was improvised. the dialogue itself is very uneven  sometimes somebody will say something very memorable and other times it memorably awkward. what amazing is the extent of the amateur actors embodiment of their characters. cassavetes went through the acting class he was teaching at the time he decided to do shadows and whispered in the ears of the ten best students and and this was the result. the guys playing ben and hughie are very good. at first i do not like lelia and but as the film progressed you see more and more she one of those actors who gets better as the tension and drama builds  not necessarily the best with small talk. shadows is hailed by many as the forerunner of the indie film movement (made in 1959) and it definitely recommended.
