My Take
Bill Condon is a filmmaker I take seriously because his range is almost disorienting. The same writer-director gave us the intimate, Oscar-winning Gods and Monsters and then the glossy spectacle of Chicago, Dreamgirls, and two Twilight installments, before landing the live-action Beauty and the Beast. That swing from prestige character study to massive studio tentpole tells me he's both an artist and a pragmatist, which I respect. I also note his 2005 GLAAD honor; his work has consistently engaged identity with real care. To me, Condon is proof that craft and commercial ambition don't have to cancel each other out.
