This abusive director shit has been allowed to go on for the entire history of the movie industry. It's not new, but it's something I feel is intolerable & absolutely antithetical to artistic greatness.
I've heard of "tortured artists" & like...ok, I feel bad for them, but I get it. A "torturing artist" though? Fuck off.
Nolan is a grown man with a lot of power & influence who has been directing for *decades*. If he wanted to create a less exploitative work environment, he could.
