"People believe my folderol because I wear a turban and a black tuxedo [...] We're in show biz! It's all about razzle-dazzle. Appearances. If you dress nice and talk well, people will swallow anything."
"Waving the flag with one hand and picking pockets with the other: that's your patriotism. Well, you can have it." Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious.
"Listen to them... Children of the night! What music they make..!"

Por eso a veces lo conveniente es contratar a técnicos competentes sin infulas creativas (artesanos así los había a puñados en el Hollywood clásico), que se limiten a dirigir el guión marcado.
El problema es que el guión tiene que ser bueno, claro.
"There’s this misconception these days that a thematic score means a dated-sounding score. This, of course, is a cop out. There’s no reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater. The art of composing modern scores is the having the skill set to keep motifs alive while being relevant. But too many times, newer composers have no idea what fully developed themes are because they grew up on scores that are nothing more than ostinatos and “buahs.”
John Ottman.
No creas, ha habido directores mediocres que han hecho grandes películas, pero, como dices, muchas veces ocurre que la cosa sale bien porque hay mucho talento a bordo por parte del resto del equipo técnico y artístico, y voluntad porque salga bien. Y ha habido también casos que de guiones medianos o malos se han sacado buenas películas, pero yo creo que es porque se da el mismo caso, o bien porque hay un director con las cosas muy claras detrás que sabe cómo contar ésto y lo que quiere contar.
