About this Quote

This quote by Carter Burwell speaks to the difficulty of making a movie when there are too many individuals involved in the decision-making procedure. He suggests that when the people making the movie are constantly second-guessing the executives of the studio, the producer, and the audience, it is very tough to accomplish anything. This is because each of these groups has their own ideas and opinions about what the film need to be, and it can be tough to fix up these various perspectives. This can cause an absence of clearness and direction, making it difficult to move forward with the job. Burwell's quote highlights the value of having a clear vision and instructions for a film, and the need to guarantee that everybody included is on the very same page.
