Las Hurdes is a documentary wherein brutal reality is more surreal than the imagination. Viridiana is in my top ten of all time for personal reasons. Bunuel is certainly in my top five directors of all time.

  the last fluctuates depending on my mood at times. I would say Fassbinder rounds out the tope five. Apologies to David Lynch, Antonioni, Straub, Visconti, and Welles, who would round out my top ten.
  - Nice group, but you're kind of stuck in the past. Three are dead and the fourth ain't makin' fiction anymore, - tinear 10:40:34 03/23/13 (1)
    it seems.

      Bergman, Fellini, Bunuel and Kurosawa. The golden age of post-war film makers. The late 40's into the 70's. These guys were the top of the hill. As good as directors like Scorsese, Spielberg, Coppola are: they don't begin to approach the greatness of these titans. And then there is Godard.
