I was thinking about this for a while last night. A movie is art, and a director makes movies. However, there is much more involved in directing, much more technical aspects that must be mastered, a more well-rounded approach that must be taken. In the same way a master carpenter has a vision for a new chair or table, and uses his technical skills in order to creat it, a director uses his technical skills in order to create his vision. However, artists do the same. A painter captures his vision for a painting using his technique and knowledge of paint and color. I can't even really decide what my opinion on this is at the moment...
