ITT: Post a director and rank their top 5 films

Debate with other anons or post your own director ranking. I'll start with William Friedkin (FriedKino)
>1: The Exorcist
>2: Sorceror
>3: The French Connection
>4: To Live and Die in L.A.
>5: Killer Joe

All of his films follow the same slow intro escalating to nonstop action formula, but The Exorcist is undeniably done best. The buildup establishes the base that the parents/priests are trying to get back to and once the kid turns full demon shit absolutely hits the fan.

Top ten, from left to right, top to bottom

how many fucking madea movies are there

>no Alex Cross
disregarded opinion

...

french > exorcist > sorcerer > cruising > l.a.

1. Wild Strawberries
2. Persona
3. Fanny and Alexander
4. The Seventh Seal
5. Scenes from a Marriage

Fair enough. The Exorcist is objectively number one and Sorcerer is very underrated.

Paul Thomas Anderson
>1. There Will Be Blood
>2. The Master
>3. Phantom Thread
>4. Inherent Vice
>5. Magnolia

Joe Johnston
1)The Rocketeer
2)Captain America The First Avenger
3)Jumanji
4)October Sky
5)Honey, I Shrunk The Kids

Aki Kaurismäki
1. Shadows in Paradise
2. Leningrad Cowboys Go America
3. La Vie De Boheme
4. Leningrad Cowboys Meet Moses
5. Le Havre

Wrong.

1. Punch-Drunk Love
2. There Will Be Blood
3. Phantom Thread
4. The Master
5. Magnolia

1. Julien Donkey-Boy
2. Mister Lonely
3. Gummo
4. Trash Humpers
5. Spring Breakers

I didn't like Punch-Drunk Love that much and Phantom Thread isn't better than The Master.

Rob Reiner
1. The Princess Bride
2. When Harry Met Sally...
3. Stand by Me
4. A Few Good Men
5. This is Spinal Tap

Replace Killer Joe with Cruisin'. I want to say Exorcist is too high but I can't make the case.

1 should be Magnolia.

How do you sit through Punch-Drunk Love without punching your monitor?

Brian De Palma

2. Carrie
3. Blow Out
4. Body Double
5. Scarface

>Sidney Lumet
1. 12 Angry Men
2. Fail-Safe
3. The Hill
4. Network
5. Dog Day Afternoon

I've sat through it about 6 times because it is actually my #1. I'm a weird dude, lonely, and hopeless romantic, so Barry's character hits home hard.

>The Coen Brothers
1. A Serious Man
2. Fargo
3. O Brother, Where Art Thou?
4. Barton Fink
5. No Country for Old Men

Pi > Wrestler > Requiem > Black Swan > Mother!

3. Pain and Gain
4. Armageddon
5. Transformers 2

Special Mention: 13 Hours

"Stand by Me" has to be number two ahead of when harry...
It's incredibly well directed with a bunch of child actors, which is always a huge gamble. Plus it's flat out just a better movie.

4. Bad Boys
5. The Island

1. Inception
