: ...doesn't the producer and casting director make that call in the first
place? They hire the director, and they hire the cast. The director
isn't in charge of that stuff, the producer is, and if the producer wants
coinage, he'll go to the sex appeal of the day (I'm not taking sides on
the lopez issue, just saying that they'll go for sex appeal somewhere
in the equation).
Maybe when it's a director-for-hire on a fifty to a hundred million dollar
flick, but not in my world.
That's not to say that if Mosier had strong feelings for or against
something, I'd ignore him. Mosier's my sounding board; I don't make
any decisions without his input.
But at the end of the day, a decision has to be made; and in my
camp, it's always made by the guy with the pocketful of cuss words.
