I could have added at least ten (or rather twenty) Russian directors I consider greatest of all times, but alas, I understand very well that nobody here knows them. I wonder if I should, if my turn comes again, nominate some more "foreign" ones - the above list has a definite American bias, and it is both unfair and sad. Visconti, Antonioni, Scola, Fellini, Zurlini, anyone? Leluch, Gérard Oury, René Clair - Guillermo del Toro, for God's sake!
Please friends, if I fail to - can someone nominate del Toro?...
