OUR PICKS: Greatest Filmmakers of ALL TIME
If you’re here you’ve got a love for filmmaking and you’ve probably watched more than your fair share of Godfather reruns on www.direct.tv. You know a thing or two about who you believe to be the best filmmakers of all time…see how your list compares to ours.
Alfred Hitchcock – Known for his eccentricity and cruelty to actors as much as he is for his films, Hitchcock’s films have definitely withstood the test of time. They’re scary and historical and a must for any aspiring film director.
Steven Speilberg – Some may call this choice “fluffy” but we think there’s something to be said for a director who consistently puts out films you want to see. He’s got the Midas touch, folks.
Stanley Kubrick – His film genius was only matched by his oddities and his films are a great example. Most of them are hard to follow and leave you deeply unsettled but that’s what great filmmaking is about, isn’t it?
Here are our first three…if you’ve got some suggestions or want to argue please leave your thoughts in the comments below!
