Most films are made by production companies. The executives "green light" a project, they then assign a producer to the film. The producer's job is to bring it all together. The producer hires the director, the screen-writers, and all of the other technical crafts-persons who work on the film.
The producer is responsible for overseeing every mechanical detail of the film: sets, costumes, locations. The producer sets up the budget, meets the payroll, and in short, does everything necessary for the director to walk on stage and say "Action."
The director, of course is responsible for the look of the film, and generally has final say over casting, script and post-production editing.
Consider the relationship between producer and director as that between the manager of a restaurant and the chef. The manager makes sure there's a place to work, that there are staff people, that the bills are paid and the larders fully stocked. Then the chef walks into the kitchen and makes the magic happen.
That's essentially the way it works. Hope this answer helps. Cheers, mate.
