I don't think you can fit Bresson in there.He'll have a few in my Top 100 as well, though.Yeah, I limited it to who are usually grouped as the French New Wave and Left Bank (Demy slipped my mind, Moullet left off intentionally) generation. Renoir, Tati, Vigo, Bresson, Clouzot, Carne, Melville, and Feuillade are some older French/non-NW/non-LB directors whose films will make my Top 100.

I really need to start thinking about this. In fact, I'll try to do this within the next couple hours. I might post a list later on.Also, how are people posting that neat little tableau with the movie posters?
Are short films eligible?
