are you purposely leaving out the most obvious NZ director?

#226

No, those are just the first two I could think of.

EDIT: I’d also guess a more obvious one would be higher in the list?

Dogtooth is genuinely good, for a film, everyone should watch that.
Really want to see Killing of a Sacred Deer & The Favourite too. One day. Maybe.

Just realised you probably mean Peter Jackson. I guess I would be okay with him being placed here but TBH I don’t think much of his direction of LotR, King Kong or The Hobbit, I just think he is impressive to have pulled them off as a whole, so I don’t really think of him much in terms of being a great director.

Forgot about him, he would have made my list for sure

100% record so far for me, Alps is sorely underrated.

Looking an absolute snack in that photo, too.

Such a wonderful director, just don’t waste your time with ‘Kinetta’. Pretty amazing that he went from that to ‘Dogtooth’.

#232

Find his films too cold and the way he makes his characters speak just pulls me out of them, can’t get invested.

Dogtooth is good tho

Something Wild is a great film… directed by Jonathan Demme :thinking:
