An audience of about 700 people attend the "Directors on Directing" panel at the Lobero Theater, always a highlight of the annual film festival. Moderated by Variety’s Peter Bart, the 2013 panel included Tom Hooper (Les Miserables), Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph), David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook), Benh Zeitlin (Beasts of the Southern Wild), Malik Bendjelloul (Searching for Sugar Man), and Mark Andrews (Brave).
