A belated but huge thanks to worm and rouj for all your work! And great list, everybody. Ken Loach is the one omission that jumps out at me - would love to see more Filmspotters catching up with his work.
Some directors on the list I am eager to catch up with:
99. Satoshi Kon
91. Agnès Varda
85. Peter Greenaway
82. Satyajit Ray
75. Luis Buñuel
68. The Dardennes
50. Apichatpong Weerasethakul
45. Frederick Wiseman
38. Federico Fellini
One day I'll see y'all Olmi skeptics and nonbelievers on the road to Damascus.
Olmi will be on my list next year if
I Fidanzati is as good as I suspect it will be. I probably ought to have included him on my list though, on the strength of
Il Posto (and even
Tickets) alone.
