Re: Notable missing directors

My old list is on the previous page so I'm not going to repost it, but here's those filmmakers from that list that I've seen films from in the last three years:

Howard Hawks (Seen the most from him, a total of 4, which run the gamut from great to terrible)
Robert Bresson (Two excellent films)
David Lean (The Bridge on the River Kwai was great. Still have yet to watch Lawrence of Arabia; its colossal running time makes it hard when you're always busy/not in the mood like I've been. Explains my recent ratings.)
John Huston
Robert Altman (Two films, both mediocre)
Krzysztof Kieslowski
Todd Haynes (Boring)
Alexander Payne (Mediocre)
Ming-liang Tsai

Trying to compile a new list would be overwhelming. There's just too many damn directors!

Re: Notable missing directors

Great idea for a thread, and relevant. In the last month I watched my first Weerasethakul, Ford, Renoir, and Kusturica, and before that knocked off Wyler, Kazan, Argento, and Carpenter. Despite that, as I looked through TSPDT's best directors lists, I realized it would probably be easier to list which directors I have seen rather than haven't, so here's a list of the filmmakers I haven't seen that I'm most looking forward to watching, which should still tell you about my interests:

Howard Hawks
Yasujiro Ozu
Robert Bresson
David Lean
Roberto Rossellini
John Huston
Satyajit Ray
Robert Altman
Bernardo Bertolucci
John Cassavetes
Pier Paolo Pasolini
Krzysztof Kieslowski
Chantal Akerman
Hayao Miyazaki
Agnès Varda
Todd Haynes
Alexander Payne
Powell & Pressburger
Aki Kaurismäki
Kon Ichikawa
Ming-liang Tsai
Anh Hung Tran
Atom Egoyan

Re: Notable missing directors

My list of obscurities, in priority order:

ABEL GANCE
Josef von Sternberg
Jacques Tati :?
Alain Resnais
Preston Sturges
Victor Sjöström
Bela Tarr
Aki Kaurismäki
Abbas Kiarostami
Krzysztof Kieslowski
Eric Rohmer
Yoshishige Yoshida
Alexander Dovzhenko
Chantal Akerman
Theo Angelopoulos
Ritwik Ghatak
Victor Sjöström
Claire Denis
Luis García Berlanga
Manoel de Oliveira
Jane Campion
David Gordon Green
Apichatpong Weerasethakul

I have a laserdisc of Gance's Napoleon just staring at me every time I walk through my front door... I should probably just buckle down and watch it. Also, everyone should add Jeff Keen to their list. Just saying. ;)
