I suspect there is that sense of ownership... he who pays the money owns the thing, and in some sense that is fair, but we are not dealing with used cars, and when discussing creative "product" we still associate it with the creator, hence we do not remember the names of producers, but we always mention the director's name next to the title.So it is sort of like "Rembrandt, Portrait of an Old Man, Mr. and Mrs. Johnson collection".
Follow Ups:
The statement that the Producers often receive the best picture awards rather than the director, even though the director has far more to do with the quality of a film than the Producer. I have heard many stories of "producers" that gave large sums of cash to a film only so that they can attain a "producers" credit on the film. They have not contributed to the artistic vision of the film, but get to walk the stage.I suspect the only reason that they get to claim a Best Picture Award is (1) because there is separate Best Director award, and (2) allowing them to walk the stage, bask in the lights, coaxes more money in future projects.
And I agree that your analogy is spot on.
