When you're young, you don't have a lot of control over even basic things in your life - where you live, what you eat, where you go during the day, how you get there.

Jenny Han

Being on a set where the director has lost control is just sickening. No one goes the extra mile, there's a lot of eye-rolling... it just breeds inertia. If a director is in control, the crew follow their leader. But the second anyone senses the directors are not sure, people just swoop in.
