This shift conflates the art of film with the craft of making the film and leaves the deeper and more important questions of a film’s aesthetic and intellectual value entirely untouched.

Francisco reflects on how the constant push towards success perhaps does not satisfy us because success only reaches often fleeting, superficial societal goals while ignoring the more important elements of wisdom and creativity that define true success and personal achievement.
