I watched a couple of really bad directors work, and I saw how they completely botched it up and missed the visual opportunities of the scene when we had put things in front of them as opportunities. Set pieces, props and so on.
I think with most all of us, we want control of our image - it's part of the work that we do.
Immense power is acquired by assuring yourself in your secret reveries that you were born to control affairs.
