Favorite Directors.

I searched for a topic like this and didn't find one.Share and discuss your favorite Directors of any genre.Also explaining the level of texture and time they put into it.Here is mine :


Stanley Kubrick:When I first saw The Shining back in 2007(I know,i suck.),I was blown away by the actors.the scenery,but most of all,Stanley Kubrick's directing skills.Then I got curious,and saw A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket.Being blown away,yet again.Thanks to those 3 films alone and the directing style.He is now my favorite Director.


Guillermo Del Toro:I saw Blade II back in 2002.Then Hellboy and finally Pan's Labyrinth.Completely immersed in that film(I'm a big fantasy and monstr fan).He opened me up to what a Director can do on film.Also,increased my respect for what the imagination can produce.Kudos to Del Toro.

Last,but not least.....


Sergio Leone:I didn't ever sit down and watch any of his films untill this year.One of the many things I now regret.He has one of the most recognized trilogies under his belt.My favorite of his films being,The Good,The Bad and The Ugly.My favorite movie of all-time.


I was being serious for once.So,like I said,Discuss and post your own!

EDIT: Damn,it oh well.Delete this or merge it with the Top Ten Directors list thread.Sorry everyone.

Your search skills suck.

It was a redundant topic even then. Here's your list from that thread:

David Lynch, Stanley Kubrick, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppolla, Sergio Leone, William Friedkin, Alfred Hitchcock, and Wes Anderson are all among my favourite directors.

Well, it's edifying- see, there was no Leone on that list.

Baz Luhrmann...his films are very colorful and vibrant.


In terms of horror movies I think Wes Craven will always be my favorite.

Its before he saw The Good The Bad And The Ugly I believe.
Sergio Leone is my all time favorite director.
Big Lynch and Scorsese fan too.
