When i quote a line from a FILM and state the technique used in the line, do i say the (name of the director) used (whatever technique)?

OR

Do I say the (the name of the script writer) used (whatever technique)?

(If i use the name of script writer, do i have to mention it in the introduction?)

never really heard of mentioning the script writer, usually just the actors, director and maybe producer.

I just say this character says this.

Or if its a cinematic technique you say the director

Well let's just say the film is written based on a book. Maybe there is some cuts of lines and words but do i say the DIRECTOR ... uses whatever technique e.g. simile in the line..?
