A film that is praised for being well made is attributed to the director or photography.

You can think about whether the victory of a battle is attributed to the commander or the chief of staff. . .

Every shot of the film is the result of the research of the director and photographer. The director put forward the idea of lighting, composition and conception, and the photographer used his own skills and understanding to realize the director's conception. At the same time, he also put forward some suggestions for photography. The two sides cooperated with each other and performed their respective duties, resulting in excellent works, and the photographer also contributed to the good work. In short, no matter how beautiful a shot is, the director can still veto it by one vote, and many big directors have the final editing right.
