William Goldman phoned Jonathan Demme with the advice he should cut a pivotal scene from THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS right before he was about to turn the movie over to the studio. Demme listened, and it worked. Love these kinds of stories.
For better for for worse your first show runner is a huge influence on how you watch/write screenplays. I watch TV now and can't help but think @narenshankar would never let that shit fly in one of our scripts.
@ericedottie And to say that the art of sound creation and editing is the same as the art of mixing sound effects, dialogue, music & foley in a cohesive and artistic way is truly embarrassing for them to admit publicly. The only smart thing here is remaining anonymous.
@ericedottie The disrespect this so-called director shows for the craft of editing is shameful. They have no business making films if they dont understand what an editor can do. There are many voices/notes during editing. But it’s how the editor addresses these is what makes the difference.
