How did I forget Jim Jarmusch? HOW??
Down By Law is one of my very favorite movies, and everything else he's done has been brilliant. Plus he's got great hair.
This has been a very cool thread, even if no one has mentioned Kenneth Anger or Stan Brakhage or Sergei Eisenstein yet. |

It's highly inaccurate to call "Performance" a Nic Roeg film. He was brought in by the nervous studio execs to babysit. Credit should - MUST - be given Donald Cammell, who has already made this quite impressive list.
Roeg is great too, don't get me wrong! But he's not the twisted genius Donald Cammell was.
