FWIW mine would have looked like this roughly on this order, though I’d have had Polanski (yeah, I know) around the 5 or 6 mark and maybe Sean Baker slipping in the lower numbers but this is without giving it loads of thought

Watched Uncle Boonmee and loved it.

Just three directors to go - Dumont, Waters and Campion.

Which you watching of each?

The Piano of Campion. BFIPlayer has Camile 1915 or whatever it’s called, and Cry Baby, so I figure those? Unless you have other thoughts

All decent shouts I’d say. Camille Claudel is brilliant but not massively representative of him as a whole.

Cry Baby isn’t massively representative of Waters either but a gentle place to start before the mad shit

alright here’s mine:

Kiyoshi “The Other” Kurosawa is best known for horror but more accurately his schtick is taking existing genres and subverting them in oddball ways (admittedly with sometimes mixed results.) His most well known films are Pulse and Cure, his takes on J-Horror and sort of American cop thrillers (a la Se7en) but Tokyo Sonata is his version of a family drama. It won the jury prize at Cannes so it’s probably his most successful film. Don’t wanna give the plot away but it’s a sort of hyperreal, black comedy about the nuclear family coming apart. Highly recommended.

N.B. please do not watch the trailers on youtube, they will ruin it.
