Directors
It’s much easier to quickly recognise actors, and to make those connections. Not so simple to join the dots about the directors. At the time of beginning this list it’s still kinda barebones, but I’ll probably be adding a few names and faces as I go along. By the time you read those words, the list may be rather full, and I’ll have been too lazy to rewrite these words 😜
I’m not setting a minimum number of films here. One amazing film will be enough to get on this list! It may be that not every film by the director is amazing, but once they’re listed I’ll list all the films that I’ve looked at. For lack of any better way to list them, and to eschew any suspicion of favouritism or bias, directors are listed alphabetically by surname. Someone once told me that I should maybe become a librarian. I was a bit insulted, as I think I can do better, but anyway I know how to put things in order, yes.
