May I please introduce myself as someone seeking and, hopefully, deserving an invite?

I am a long-time addict of "arthouse," "obscure," "classic," "experimental," "avant-garde," and other forms of "non-mainstream" cinema. (Sorry for the holocaust of quote marks, but like many of us, I'm not quite comfortable with any of those terms, but it's a bit difficult to come up with better ways of expressing these categories in a short space.) Rather than list my favorite directors, it might be more to the point if I mention some of the directors now represented on my hard drive(s): (Japanese) Shohei Imamura, Koji Wakamatsu, Nagisa Oshima, Yasuzo Masumura, Noboru Tanaka, Kiju Yoshida, Nobuo Nakagawa, Tomu Uchida, Mikio Naruse, Ishiro Honda; (American) Anthony Mann, Fritz Lang, Rowland V. Lee, Paul Schrader, Frank Borzage, Joseph H. Lewis, Frank Tashlin; (European) Michelangelo Antonioni, Riccardo Freda, Antonio Margheriti, Ernst Lubitsch, Manoel de Oliveira, Amando de Ossorio, Jean-Luc Godard, Georges Franju, Harald Reinl, Jose Luis Guerin... and many more. That's without getting into the DVDs... Some of these items are not particularly uncommon, but others are probably harder to find, and I know I'm not the only one who would like to have them.

If someone has an invite to spare for me, I would be most grateful.

I know people want a bit more info before just giving away invites so here's a few films/director's I'm interested in:

Kissangi Diary
China Blue
Her Name is Sabine
20 Years Later
Hardcore (Stephen Walker)

Ulrich Seidl
Farun Harouki
Chris Marker
Georges Franju

Any help would really be appreciated, and I'd be happy to share any films in my collection once a member.

Many thanks.

Sent. The Chris Marker collection on the site is very impressive.
