Akira Kurosawa on script
“with a good script, a good director can make a masterpiece. With the same script a mediocre director can make a passable film. But with a bad script, even a good director can’t possibly make a good film.” Without the ability to come up with a good story, the director would have no way of telling it in a convincing or interesting way. He thought that a director must know everything there was to know about movies and the processes and ideas of the great directors. The script was essential in the process because it was the seed from which the tree of the film would grow and bloom. This is what distinguished the great directors from the mediocre ones."
Alfred Hitchcock on script
"To make a great film you need three things - the script, the script and the script."
Nowadays directors on script
"To make a film you jst need f***ing CGI"
