In Reply to: The three best directors working today are hardly known. posted by tinear on November 24, 2005 at 06:05:50:
...I'll never understand the desire/need to identify the "best," whether it be a composer, a recording, a film, a director, or anything else.First, it's a ludicrous notion that there's a definitive best, and second, it tells me nothing of substance.
I'm sure these directors are worth getting to know, but I submit all three would agree with the silliness of this kind of ranking.

game to put forth one's opinions and defend them.
If one finds that offensive, one may withdraw from the field.
There is a world of difference between saying ONE is the ultimate and identifying a group which is, no?
My point is that three superb directors, as good as any working today, toil in obscurity (relative). Satisfied?
