Default Your Favorite Film From the Following Directors:

im pretty sure there was a thread like this before but i searched and searched and couldnt find it. i thought it was fun so i figured id try to get it going again.

pretty self explanatory, just post your favorite movie from each director listed.
few simple guidelines:
-if youve never seen anything by them just leave it blank, no big deal.
-if youve never heard of them look them up, maybe youve seen their work and dont know it.
-if you dont like any of their movies, just pick whichever is the best even if you didnt like it.
-feel free to add directors to the list, obviously im not gonna think of everyone but im just gonna get the ball rolling.

in the end (if people even participate) i might do some tallying and see which got the most votes or whatever but this is mainly just for fun.

Well, I tend to suck at making lists where one thing is considered a total fave above all else. There's just too many to pick.
