Default Re: Who gets the credit for a quality movie?

I agree with PJ that obviously it is a collobarative effort and a film is the sum of its parts.

However, how much credit we give to those parts really depends on the film at hand. For example, some visionary directors we really have to give them credit for their classic works (e.g. Kubrick). Other times, the writer is key (Kauffman, for instance), and of course an actor can make or break a film.

Other times it is a combination, for example, Indiana Jones is a really a combination of Speilberg action and the charisma of Harrison Ford.
