  • I wonder if delays and issues with Rhythm Section are impacting anything here, in terms of apparently not wanting to go with Demange. The producers are going to have their hands full over the next set of months, and they probably need someone wit…

  • I'm not sure I agree on the relative importance of script writer vs. director. I think the director can make magic out of a substandard script but perhaps it doesn't work the other way around. After all, it's the director's job to get the best out o…
