That’s what apparently happened on the set of The Lighthouse where Robert Pattinson was being directed by The Witch director Robert Eggers.
And then sometimes the director pisses you off to the point where you just want to slug him.
Pattinson says that one scene, that he had to film multiple times, required him to be repeatedly sprayed with water and it just became too much to handle.
So often you here actors singing the praises of directors.
