I did submit ratings for Forman and other directors back in August:

And I have them. I've been trying to save space on the Spreadsheet, so when you submitted I shared your space with The Kid/Paul Phoenix, who rated very few names. I forgot about this when I made the initial list of 100% completion. Now there are the 3 names, who both you and The Kid submitted Ratings for.

The only group with 100% completion is Group 1 because it's the only group with submissions from Antares and oneaprilday.

I'm going to be out of town on Wednesday so I will keep the door open until Thursday morning.


The following Directors have 3 Ratings, 1 short of going into the main list. Feel free to double-check me and resubmit your Ratings for the following, but I wouldn't put too much effort into it. Only if a name jumps out to you as someone you don't want to see get overlooked. Most of these people are rated too low to make any final lists.

Lewis Allen
Dorothy Arzner
Gabriel Axel
Paul Bartel
Marco Bellocchio
Luis Garcia Berlanga
Vishal Bhardwaj
Muriel Box
Jean-Claude Brisseau
Edward Burns
Cheh Chang
Patrice Chereau
Isabel Coixet
Rolf de Heer
Bill Douglas
Reha Erdem
Pietro Germi
Francois Girard
Jean-Pierre Gorin
Hideo Gosha
Philippe Grandrieux
Alain Guiraudie
Anthony Harvey
Nicholas Hytner
Raj Kapoor
Jerzy Kawalerowicz
Ryuhei Kitamura
Stephane Lafleur
Bimal Roy
Jacques Rozier
Hiroshi Shimizu
Maria Speth
Shuji Terayama
Stefan Uher
Krzystof Zanussi

Since I finished my paper tonight, there's a pretty great chance that I'll come back and finish this up early this week.

Shuji Terayama
How many 10s does it take before he's #1 on the list? Should only be a matter of time now...

Another 3 or 4 ought to do it.
I almost watched Pastrol Hide and Seek once, but I didn't feel that qualified me to assign a Rating.
