Director or Auteur?

Director - Someone who makes the decisions. A person who is in charge of an activity, department, or organization.


Auteur - Someone who is a director, but they have a large influence on the film as a whole, and are responsible for some of the plot, story-line. You can recognize there work, by there artistic style because there work is one of a kind. They have established themselves over many years, and they become 'well-known'.


The difference is that the film they have created reflects them as a person, and reflects them personally, so they are given the name Auteur.
'The king of directors'
