#46

PTA, kubrick, tarantino, lynch and… abbas kiarostami.

#47

Coen bros

#48

Feel like he should be higher, just look at that list.

#49

Haven’t seen French Connection or The Exorcist yet :grimacing: Killer Joe was full on and quite decent, though three couples walked out in the screening I saw - about a quarter of the audience tbh

#50

Scorsese instead of Tarantino, probably Wes Anderson too.

#51

Pls no

Thanks @AQOS, great work as always.

I have only ever seen Dancer in the Dark of his films. Maybe it was Melancholia we started to watch and I had to turn it off. DitD was just so depressing and in the end I couldn’t work out what the point was to watching it.

If I’m honest it’s Spike Jonze’s music videos that I love best

100% is such a classic video and a classic song

(I think he only filmed the skating bits TBF)

Actively liked Hurt Locker, probably never going to watch 0 Dark 30, need to watch Near Dark, Point Break is perfection

Detroit was well done but very heavy and grim and felt a little conservative in attitude - not terribly so, and could just be my bias after hearing that Zero was a bit too kind to the Americans

I mean I can’t believe you missed off Strange Days. What a film. Cameron’s writing and her direction, plus Skunk Anasie inexplicably the biggest band in the world and thus asked to play to usher in 2000?! Anyway, it’s a crazy film and really vile but it’s such a good piece of sci-fi noir.
