“All I mean is, I'm not the kind of audience comedy directors want at a test screening because I seldom laugh, and if I do, it's not very loud. That doesn't mean I don't like the movie.” IfsWantKindMeanAudienceLaughingComedyDirectorsTestsLoudScreening Author:Todd Solondz
“I love test screenings. Some directors don't, I know. But I love it. I think it's because I come from the theatre and in the theatre, previews are where you really have to listen to the audience and really feel how they're responding. I found our test screenings incredibly useful.” ThinkingKnowsFeelsFoundAudienceDirectorsTestsTheatreRespondingScreeningPreviewTheatre Directors Author:Stephen Daldry

“The test for me, when I read other people's scripts, is whether I feel like there's something about me that is the best person to tell this story. I have a pretty high bar for myself. There's a lot of scripts that I read and think, "Oh, this is great, but I think there are 50 other directors who could bring this to the cinema."” PeopleThinkingFeelsPersonsStoriesDirectorsTestsScriptsBarsCinemaBest Person Author:Francesca Gregorini
