The Greatest Film Directors
The only directors on the list that deserve to be there--in my view--are Kubrick;Ford;and Spielberg...even Foreman doesn't quite stack up.The others are fine film-makers(though Craven is pushing things a little).
Judging just by directors who've made movies in the english language(there's many others),I'd have included:
Frank Capra Howard Hawks Orson Welles John Huston Billy Wilder Alfred Hitch$%!@ Elia Kazan David Lean Sam Peckinpah Francis Ford Coppola Martin Scorsese Roman Polanski Spielberg;Kubrick;Ford I'd also consider Fred Zinnemann;George Stevens;Woody Allen;Arthur Penn;John Frankenheimer;Sidney Lumet;Milos Foreman.
Especially Scorsese.
Yeah Martin Scorcese is the best!!!
Oops...I forgot about Robert Altman.
