According to Marshall Fine,
Cassavetes' films aim to capture "small feelings" often repressed by Hollywood filmmaking, emphasizing intimate character examination and relationships rather than plot, backstory, or stylization.<ref name="auto"/> He often presented difficult characters whose behaviors were not easily understood, rejecting simplistic psychological or narrative explanations for their actions.<ref name="Ray Carney pp. 283">Carney, Ray,''Cassavetes on Cassavetes'', London: Faber and Faber, 2001: pp. 283.</ref> Cassavetes also disregarded the "impressionistic cinematography, linear editing, and star-centred scene making" fashionable in Hollywood and art films.<ref>Bendedetto, Lucio. "Forging an Original Response: A Review of Cassavetes Criticism in English", ''Post Script'' V. 11 n. 2. (Winter 1992): 101.</ref> Instead, he worked to create a comfortable and informal environment where actors could freely experiment with their performances and go beyond acting clichés or "programmed behaviors."<ref name="Ray Carney pp. 283"/>
