[Carney] Just as Cassavetes accepted his own imperfections, and those of his friends, he accepted his characters’. He didn’t ask them to clean up their acts. He respected their emotional disarray. He did not hold their failures of communication against them. He empathized with their struggles. The artistic importance of the result was that in these de-idealizations viewers saw the tortured chambers of their own souls revealed to themselves as if for the first time. Cassavetes’ advice to young directors summed up the stunning originality - and enduring shock value - of both his life and his work:

[Cassavetes] Say what you are. Not what you would like to be. Not what you have to be. Just say what you are. And what you are is good enough.
