About this Quote

This quote by James Cameron talks to the power of collaboration and the importance of the stars in the filmmaking procedure. He is stressing that the director is not the sole source of imagination and magic in a movie, but rather the actors are the ones who bring the director's vision to life. The director might have the vision and the plan, however it is the stars who bring the characters to life and make the story come alive. Without the actors, the director's vision would stay simply that - a vision. The actors are the ones who bring the director's vision to life and make it a truth. They are the ones who bring the characters to life and make the story come alive. They are the ones who bring the magic to the film. Without the stars, the director's vision would remain simply that - a vision.
