re: Top 5 Working Directors (Updated)

quote:

---

1 Coen brothers - Simply the best, and still at the top of their game.
2 David Fincher - A fantastic stylist who has finally learned how to tell stories.
3 Darren Aronofsky - The most audacious filmmaker working within the system
4 David O. Russell - You know what? Learn to tell a fricking story. So many people get awed by technicians and craftsmen, but directors, at their core, need to be storytellers. He's the best at that right now.
5 Christopher Nolan - He made three of the best movies of the past 15 years (Memento, Prestige, Inception). This is his era.
