Give a writer a deadline, and it can be written in a day.
But *let* a writer set a deadline, and it will not be written for a lifetime.

GOOD MOVIE MATH: hire the best screenwriter you can afford + hire a director who will listen to them + keep screenwriter on project through production/post = a good movie
One reason for that (this new movie aside) is, I think, the gigantic shift toward directors writing their own scripts since then. If directors/producers/studios view screenwriting as a means to an end rather than an artistic practice distinct from what they do, you're going to see the difference.

Can we talk about “The Apprentice” - a film about an American president - a which was not directed by a Canadian, not written by a Canadian, not starring Canadians, and not set in Canada winning the award for “Best Canadian Film”?
Or is that treason?
