Craft Section | What Directors Are Saying: Michael Powell

"In a film, there's no such thing as a small or big part. There are short and long parts. In films, more or less, you can have who you want. So long as you don't want all stars. But you can have the best actors in the world and so you should cast every single part yourself. You shouldn't leave it to anybody else."
