The challenge is that despite being a director of famous films and well-known actors, Billy Wilder's name is not widely recognized.

However, this was what he really desired. He worked on over 200 films as a ghostwriter, and one of his famous quotes is, "The best director is the one you don't see."

The reason Wilder is not recognized is that he never wanted to consists his personal style across his works or to make his name famous. Instead, he focused on enhancing each film and its characters, allowing them to shine.
