Again, lots of good ones left out; Renoir, Polanski, Fassbinder, Truffaut, Preminger, and so on. And there are a few - particularly George Lucas - whose inclusion is questionable. But we're limited to 25 choices, so there you are. Still, have fun with it.

Greatest director of 20th Century? As opposed to what other century?
Well, Edison invented the motion picture in 1888. Films weren't particularly long until the early 20th century, but they existed and frequently tried to tell a story of sorts. |
