When People In The Film Industry Talk Of 'creative Differences' When They Walk Out...

...what's the subtext?

[kvalidir]

It can be anything from genuine creative differences, people seeing things so differently that never the twain etc, to someone having emotional or health issues, drink or drug addictions, a change because someone has fallen out with someone, someone didn't pass a medical, someone won't sleep with someone or a change in hierachy which means someone's mate has now got the job or they're going to re-budget and can't now afford the person or they know something is about to break about someone which will affect the project. Did you have a specific project in mind?

Basically, one person wants one thing, one person wants another so they find it too hard to work together

Kvalidir, I was thinking of Danny Boyle who's stepped away from directing the next James Bond film.

[EDDIE51]

It means they have had a row with the director/editor.

[kvalidir]

Oh there's a right bit of gossip about that, mainly being that Daniel Craig hates the idea of Dany Boyle directing it and since he can veto casting and script elements it led to a massive ruckus when Danny Boyle and his writing associate rewrote the script and wanted specifically to cats someone Daniel Craig doesn't want ( because he firmly wants someone else). Daniel Craig is used to getting his own way and Danny boyle wasn't having it so he jumped ship. Allegedly.

But if Daniel Craig said "jump" I'd ask "how high?"!

flouncing

this happened to a film called 'Caligula' - Helen Mirren as Drusilla, and so forth. The Directors cut wasnt sexy enough so penrhouse models were drafted in for more nooky ( unsimulated)
The director went
the script writer went

and it has become a cult classic.

[kvalidir]

It happens a lot. Henry Cavill has just been binned from Superman for quite horrid and unmentionable reasons but the James Bond people don't seem to care about that and he's under consideration apparently. Yukk.
