Who are your favourite directors?
First things first, obviously very happy to find this place. I thought it'd be good to have an initial director discussion thread.
Personally David Fincher and Darren Aaronofsky — I can watch their films time and time again. I'm currently watching The Whale for the second time and I think it's one of the most powerful movies I've ever seen.
Looking forward to hearing from the community.

Since no one else mentioned him, I'll go with Akira Kurosawa this time. Rashomon is a great watch on the short side and my personal favourite, based on a short story by Akutagawa. The most enjoyable part of the movie to me is the obvious - different ways the characters twist their retelling of the crime, which do a great job of telling you what kind of person the speaker is.
In addition, I'd bet most people if not have watched it, have atleast heard of Seven Samurai. If not, surely have seen something inspired by the movie.Ikiru is my favorite of his.
