‘FOR ART’ IS NO EXCUSE TO TREAT PEOPLE LIKE THIS

Alfred Hitchcock also told Joan Fontaine that everyone on the set of Rebecca hated her in order to make her feel paranoid and uneasy.

All of this is so counter to what I was taught about directing, and the actor-director relationship. These tactics are lazy as hell in addition to being abusive, I don’t care how great these directors are. It’s so fucked up.

This is why the SGA exists.

We have to stop idolizing the men who do these things, and the films they make using these practices. 

In film school, I saw plenty of guys in my classes worshipping these directors as their heroes. It made me sick. Plenty of directors achieve greatness without stooping to such tactics. Worship them instead.
