[Machine Translation] John Cassavetes' directorial debut is a milestone in independent filmmaking that has greatly influenced future filmmakers such as Martin Scorsese and Jim Jarmusch. The film uses improvisational direction and music without a scenario to vividly capture the actors' emotional turmoil. A brilliant masterpiece that established a new direction for cinema with its vivid reality and realism. --Hugh, an unsuccessful jazz singer, Lelia, an aspiring writer, and Ben, who dreams of becoming a trumpet player, are three siblings living in Manhattan, New York. One day, Lelia falls in love with Tony, a white man she met at a party. However, when Tony visits Lelia's house, he is upset to learn that she is of mixed race with a black man and hurts her. Hugh notices this and kicks Tony out...

アメリカの影 / 洋画

ジョン・カサヴェテスの監督デビュー作にして、マーティン・スコセッシやジム・ジャームッシュら後の映像作家たちに多大な影響を与えたインディペンデント映画の金字塔作品。シナリオなしの即興演出と音楽で、俳優たちの揺れ動く感情を活写。その鮮烈なリアリティと臨場感で映画の新たな方向性を確立した才気あふれる傑作。――ニューヨーク、マンハッタンに暮らす売れないジャズ歌手のヒュー、作家志望のレリア、トランペット奏者になる夢を持つベンの三人兄妹。ある日、レリアはパーティーで知り合った白人男性トニーと恋に落ちる。しかし、レリアの家を訪ねたトニーは、彼女が黒人との混血であることを知り動揺し、レリアを傷つけてしまう。それに気付いたヒューはトニーを追い出すのだが・・・。
