I love the movies. I always have, and I'm by no means alone. You probably like them too.
While I like just about any well-made film, I tend to like foreign films the best, but not for some snooty reason. I've just found many of them to be quirky, odd, and often visionary.
Hollywood seems to be stuck in a remake fever, rehashing old ideas and worn titles for fast/easy money. Not all the time, but often enough.
My favorite directors are Jean Pierre Jeunet, Luc Besson, Sergio Leoni, Akira Kurosawa, Christopher Nolan, Terry Gilliam, and Ingmar Bergman.
I also love the visuals of Tim Burton, though I never feel like he goes quite far enough with his stories. But, he's a damn great artist, and it's always great to see his work on film.
Who are your favorite directors?
