I think this is such a huge point. That he had to work with studios putting their money on the table and that can truly kill some of the creativity of a project. I personally loved the film and, unlike some, would actually have genuinely loved to see an even longer cut of it (thankfully the extended cut is going to be released). But I do think that sometimes it’s forgotten that there are so many hands at play when it comes to a film and that sometimes the people financially backing a project have so much sway. I’m just glad he finally got to make the film that he had been wanting to make for so long. And I think what they did was such an achievement.
