Más importante todavía que su falsedad de los hechos, el bulo de la “improvisación” representó un error de concepto..

As I noted, the revisionary process extended into the shoot itself, with many scenes being rewritten or reconceptualized as they were rehearsed, and changed yet again as they were performed. More important than its factual falsity, the “improvisation” canard represented a conceptual error. What the film’s critics couldn’t deal with was the very innovativeness of Cassavetes’ presentation. The slipperiness of the characters’ relationships, the mercuriality of their tones, the performative eccentricity of their interactions, and the zig-zagginess of their scenes was not evidence that Cassavetes was filming improvised lines but improvised lives.
