IMO..Jackie Brown was GREAT!!
I don't know if I've ever seen Citizen Kane in it's entirety.

Steven Spielberg
watching ET at age 12....
that film blew my mind.
Altough that guy that did the toxic avenger,
he's not bad either. |

I can't believe you people haven't mentioned the Coen Brothers! Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, Miller's Crossing, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, and O Brother Where Art Thou. You can't get better than that.
and Scorsese |

John Ford.
Provided you like old westerns. I never paid much attention to directors. It's like most other art forms, so much hype. I like Speilberg sometimes. |

>Is Jackie Brown by Q.Tarantino any good?
yes,its excellent. its a bit different to the other 3 QT films in that he didnt write the original screenplay (its adapted from Elmore leonard's novel "Rum Punch") but its stil worth watching. Might need to watch it a couple of times before you get the plot twists in it. Pam Grier is great in it
>Also, I need feedback on Citizen Kane. TIA!
the hype is not over-exaggerated. One of the greatest films ever made , by one of the greatest actors and directors in history.
Welles definitely belongs in this list as one of the greats!

Seymour Butts
and of course.....
The Hedgehog, Ron Jeremy.
I also like Terry Gilliam and Tim Burton. |
|

Then I want to boycott Terry Gilliam and Tim Burton. |
|
|
| Sir Stonesalot |
I notice that you didn't mention a boycott of Seymour Butts and Ron Jeremy.
Heh heh heh.
Time Bandits is the best midget movie ever made. |
|

Well, I figured I'd get a lot of protest if I would have called for everyone to boycott Butts and Jeremy. |

agreed - but "Bad Santa" gives it a run for its money...
The Criterion "Brazil" is a must-own DVD set, as are their transfers of Kurosawa's work, and the Beastie Boys collection (the most innovative music DVD I have ever seen), and I just can't say enough about "Gimme Shelter"

fpm - point taken re roeg
caro - wasn't coppola's file "hearts of darkness"?? - i enjoyed it but it wasn't really a takek on "Heart of Darkness",of course, it's well acknowledged that Coppola used HOD as a loose framework for Apocolypse Now...
and i too thought Jackie Brown was excellent |

Coppola - maybe. Hitchcock - mmm, close. Dark Brothers - too weird with all the evil clowns and stuff. Speilberg - Jaws, ET, Poltergeist (by the way, is that on dvd yet as a special edition?) Schindlers list - too obvious. Roger Corman - class all the way.
But no.. George A. Romero is the man. Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead are just wickedly brilliant stuff. Particularly Dawn, which has just been remade starring Ving Rhames. Knightriders, Creepshow, Monkey Shines - its all good man, but nothing beats those zombies. |

I like Spike Lee - he's got New York attitude. Loved the movie 25th hours or 25 Hours whatever it's called. |
|
|
| glencar |
Spike Lee is a whiner. His movies bore me. |

Scorsese-Tarantino-Kubrick
Wes Anderson is a good new director. He always has Stones tunes in his films (Royal Tennenbaums-Rushmore)
|
|
|
| glencar |
Yeah, Rushmore was good. Royal Tenenbaums was so dull. |

re cammell - did you hear that in a bizarre instance of life imitating art cammell died with a bullett through his head - see final scenes of "performance" - from mememory it was suicide |
