# Quote 1 [on working with director Fritz Lang on Rancho Notorious (1952)] Fritz had the faculty of riding the camera dolly. He had to watch through the finder; he'd hold the operator to one side while he'd be looking through. Hell, an operator has to have complete control of the camera while a scene is being shot. In rehearsal it's all right, but when you're shooting the scene, you have to leave that man alone. I can get behind the camera and see what the operator is doing, I can see if he's getting the scene or not. But with a guy doing what Fritz did you can't do the job. He got very abusive to some of my camera crew. I wanted to quit and Lang wanted to fire me.
