Many directors - such as, Woody Allen, P.T. Anderson, Brian DePalma and, of course, Quentin Tarantino - have often been labelled as auteurs. But how do you feel about their homages, and does it make them any less of an auteur, since one must have their own unique style? I consider Tarantino to be an auteur, if only for his brilliant and influential dialogue, and Woody Allen seems to put his own twist on his borrowed ideas, but I'm unsure about DePalma and Anderson. As much as I love Anderson (Magnolia is probably one of my top ten films of all time), he seems to resemble too much of a Scorsese wannabe at times to be a "true" auteur...
