When you think about how many people have to come together and do a good job of it, it is amazing that a good film ever gets made.
One of my favorite movies, Ravenous, lost its director before shooting began, and someone else had to step in at the last minute, and they had only the vaguest idea about what the film was about, and it still came out marvellous. Boggles the mind.
