“First of all, directing is an idea that you have of a total flow of images that are going on, which are incidentally actors, words, and objects in space. It's an idea you have of yourself, like the idea you have of your own personality which finds its best representation in the world in terms of specific flows of imaginary images. That's what directing is.” WorldFirstsIdeasActorsTermSpaceObjectsPersonalityFlowImaginaryRepresentation Author:Abraham Polonsky
