Mr. Patinkin re: fight scenes

[dewline]

I can empathise with both Mr. Patinkin and the director on this one. In the latter's case, getting it done on time and on budget is a Good Thing. Especially if you can get all the camera angles right. And getting a fight scene done in a single take is a thing of wonder.

And on the other, when the actors and crew are truly enjoying the work of the moment?

Yeah. The cruellest words for such people can indeed be "Cut! Print!"
