“Many filmmakers, if they are honest, want to be photographed standing on a very large crane, next to a very large Arriflex, with about a hundred people in the background, all of whom are looking up to them with reverence because they are the Director. This is the quasi-Napoleonic notion of what a film director is.
Then there’s another kind of film director. He or she would be more accurately described as an artist: a person who needs to work with other people in order to facilitate an individual ideal – a more low-key idea – of what film is and how film can be made. And the present technology is very sympathetic to this second category, and somewhat annoying to the first category because this second option is now available.”
– Mike Figgis
