  Film director - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In practice the director will delegate many of these responsibilities to other members of his or her film crew.
Directors often work closely with film producers, who are usually responsible for the non-artistic elements of the film, such as financing, contract negotiation and marketing.
It is the director's sense of the dramatic along with the creative visualization of the script that transforms a screenplay into a well-made motion picture.

A theatre director is a principal in the theatre field who oversees and orchestrates the mounting of a play by unifying various endeavors and aspects of production.
The director, as a position in and of itself, is a relatively new innovation in the history of theatre, with the first examples appearing in the late 1800s and widespread popularity only being achieved in the early part of the 20th century.
Many contemporary directors use a creative amalgam of styles, depending on the genre of the theatrical work, the nature of the project and the type of cast.

 Filmmakers.com: The Film Director
Judging from the comments of most professional directors, there is very little agreement as to what exactly their function is. There are some directors who say that they must concentrate primarily on the structures of the script.
The director, whether he explicitly controls all the subordinate work in a film or merely creates a certain context through his very presence, is the only participant in a film's creation whose moment of self-expression is wide enough and, thus, whose artistic vision may come to characterize the film as a whole.
When it is said that the director approaches a film with a sense of the whole in mind, obviously it is not meant that he has a complete knowledge of the finished product in all its parts.

 Classic Films: The Director   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
No doubt the auteur critics exaggerated the primacy of the director, particularly in America, where many film directors were at the mercy of the studio system, which tended to emphasize group work rather than individual expression, “stars” rather than directors, and box-office success before artistic distinction.
True, the stage director creates certain patterns of movement, appropriate gestures for his actors, and spatial relationships, but all of these visual elements take second place to the language of the script, which is created by the playwright.
That is, the director is responsible for the general interpretation of the script, and usually defines the limits for the other interpretive artists: actors, designers, technicians.
