Edward Dmytryk: Self

Quotes 

• Edward Dmytryk : I hate the auteur theory. Because, everybody - in the first place, the auteur says the director does it all. That's a lot of crap. The director has a crew of anywhere from 50 to 150 people helping him. You take a Rolls Royce, right. A Rolls Royce is a very wealthy, very rich car. If you take a one dollar spark plug out of the engine, one dollar, the thing doesn't run well. Hardly runs at all. Now, this is the same thing in a crew. You depend on everybody doing his best work for that picture to be 100% perfect. I could labor like hell and if they weren't working, it would be nothing. It would be nothing!
