You Spend Most Of Your Time As A Director Trying To Move Forward With The Movie. It Happens On A Daily Basis, If Not More Than Once A Day, That You Are Struggling With Budgetary Constraints.

It Occurred To Me That Every Work Of Art Is A Synecdoche, There's No Way Around It. Every Creative Work That Someone Does Can Only Represent An Aspect Of The Whole Of Something. I Can't Think Of An Exception To That.
