Favorite Film Directors

[JHyde]

Well, I'm probably repeating myself, but anyway:

*Woody Allen
*Michael Gondry
*Christine Jeffs
*Spike Jonze
*Sarah Watt (an Australian director, who makes wonderful films about ordinary people living day to day. Like a more developed Mike Leigh, in some ways, and less try hard. Better intentions too.)
*Hitchcock, an oldie but a goodie. I still think his films provide us with a wonderfully unique version of cultural history.
*Alphonso Cuaron (I can't get the accent in, sorry Beatriz!)
*Guillermo del Toro
*Bharat Nalluri (who of course we know from his wonderful, stylish work on Spooks).

I also love several TV directors, especially Julie Ann Robinson who started out with Blackpool and has gone on to direct some of my fave episodes of Weeds and Grey's Anatomy. The movie she's currently doing with Miley Cyrus is just a stepping stone, repeat after me.
