“The cities of Italy are now deluged with droves of these creatures [tour groups], for they never separate, and you see them, forty in number, pouring along a street with their director - now in front, now at the rear, circling them like a sheep dog - and really the process is as like herding as may be.” MayProcessNumbersCitiesGroupsStreetsDogFrontsDirectorsCreaturesFortySheepPouring Author:Daniel J.

“As an artist - I'm sure like most creative people - you have a kind of board of directors that you make your work for.

“If there is one thing that, as a director, you don't want to be a part of, it's a group. It's the same thing with music. I don't want to be a part of a scene. Just leave me alone.

“The biggest thing I've noticed with some of my favorite directors is their gift of sticking a bunch of strangers in a room together and making them comfortable and making them into a cohesive group.

“Noah Baumbach does more takes than any director I've ever worked with. He runs a very quiet set and he runs a very hard working set. He has such an intense level of dedication to what's happening that he cultivates a group of people around him who have an equal level of dedication. Nobody asks, "When is lunch?" That's just not part of our sets. It's complete immersion. He has a 'no cell phone' rule. Nobody checks their cell phone. Nobody reads on set. It's like, "If you're there, you're there. If you're not on board with that, don't work on this movie."” PeopleIfsDoeHardRunningAsksLevelsGroupsHard WorkQuietDirectorsEqualHappeningsPhonesIntenseChecksCellsBoardsLunchDedicationCell PhoneImmersion Author:Greta Gerwig

“A lot of people love Tarantino’s films because they’re spectacular, they’re beautiful, they’re wonderful. He hires the best group of artists - not only actors, but everyone around: best photographers, best set designers, best production designers, costume designers.

But very few people see that he’s a very political director.” PeopleBeautifulFilmPoliticalArtistActorsWonderfulGroupsDirectorsPhotographerProductionsDesignerBloodySavagesCostumesSpectacularTarantino Author:Demian Bichir
