El director de cine o director cinematográfico (en algunos países también realizador) es la persona que dirige la filmación de una película, da instrucciones a los actores, decide la puesta de cámara, supervisa el decorado y el vestuario, y todas las demás funciones necesarias para llevar a buen término el rodaje. Previamente habrá intervenido en numerosas labores, principalmente la realización del guion técnico (encuadre, plano, movimientos de cámara, objetivo y angulación), como la selección o casting de los actores y de los demás profesionales, los escenarios naturales en los que se rodará la película, los decorados, o la redacción final del guion.

A film director is a person who directs the making of a film. Generally, a film director controls a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, and visualizes the script while guiding the technical crew and actors in the fulfillment of that vision. The director has a key role in choosing the cast members, production design, and the creative aspects of filmmaking. Under European Union law, the director is viewed as the author of the film. The film director gives direction to the cast and crew and creates an overall vision through which a film eventually becomes realized, or noticed. Directors need to be able to mediate differences in creative visions and stay in the boundaries of the film's budget. There are many pathways to becoming a film director. Some film directors started as screenwriters, cinematographers, film editors or actors. Other film directors have attended a film school. Directors use different approaches. Some outline a general plotline and let the actors improvise dialogue, while others control every aspect, and demand that the actors and crew follow instructions precisely. Some directors also write their own screenplays or collaborate on screenplays with long-standing writing partners. Some directors edit or appear in their films, or compose the music score for their films.
