Agriculture opened the
door to (theoretically)
stable food supplies, and it let hunter - gatherers build permanent dwellings that eventually morphed
into complex societies in many parts of the world.
The director who has, God forbid, a personal vision to express will have to recruit support from an important star in the same
stable to get his vision out the agency
doors and
into production.
In the village where I grew up there was an old Georgian vicarage, rather decrepit, that still had all its outbuildings —
stables, stores, even a (disused, thankfully) «necessary house» with multiple wooden seats in a row; round the back, in the lower garden, there was a
door that opened
into the space underneath, so that it could be shoveled out.
