Quote by Tom Hanks

That's what's nice about directing a film and having it done: There's nothing more I can do about it. It's done. That's it. All I can do is let it go and hope that people are kind to it.

That's what's nice about directing a film and having it done

Summary

This quote highlights the relief that comes with the completion of a film from the director's perspective. Once the film is done, there is no more control or influence the director can have over it. This realization brings a sense of finality, and the director must accept that their role in the project is concluded. The quote also expresses a desire for the audience to receive the film positively, as the director relinquishes any further power and must trust that people will be kind in their perception of the work.
