...directed all four. Before production begins, Guest and Levy say they map out the film.Though no traditional script exists, the duo spends around four months preparing an extensively thorough outline—25 pages’ worth of character background, scene-by-scene breakdowns, and original songs.After that, the actors perform the story, and only then does the real spontaneity start.“We give them as much meat on the bone so they can improvise, use the information or not.
