Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Perhaps it doesn't occur to you and the other guy that

directors produce films KNOWING that the producer will weigh in with cuts, therefore they put in some filler.
I think we might acknowledge that the human body is not made to sit still for three hours in silence, without getting up and moving around. In the "old days," longer films like "Ben Hur" had intermission. That's gone now as films typically extend over 2 hours.
Director's cuts would kill the film; producers are more logical. No ego involved. It's like a good editor at a publishing house: every author thinks every preposition is holy. Editors know better.
