Great moviebear, did you see Killing of a Sacred Deer yet?
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I'm a big fan of Saulnier's. I've enjoyed all his films so far. I've been meaning to start putting together a running list of directors.Great list! Made me think of Jeremy Saulnier too. Like his stuff so far?

I'd like to add Gareth Evans to this list. He did a great job with the two Raid films and I thought Apostle was underrated. He just finished a TV series, so I'm looking forward to what he has coming up next.

Hold the Dark. It wasn't an easy watch, but I enjoyed it. The one shoutout scene was crazy.Blue Ruin and Green Room are fantastic right! He did a Netflix film too.

I still haven't watched any Jeremy Saulnier.
I'm pretty fond of Jim Mickle too. Stake Land is solid and Cold in July was too.

Three times. A fourth is coming soon.
(easily one of my favorites movies ever. I mean, ever. Right there at the top with The Tenant and others.)
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
aha! when luring you here, bears felt something important was going to happen. I glanced at Malick's filmography only to find out that I haven't watched a single film by him.
Well, where should bears start?
***rubbing paws in anticipation***

Can I ask for your Lanthimos power rankings?Three times. A fourth is coming soon.
(easily one of my favorites movies ever. I mean, ever. Right there at the top with The Tenant and others.)
Mine is
1. Dogtooth
2. The Killing of A Sacred Deer
3. The Favourite
4. The Lobster
I still need to watch Alps and Kinetta. Haven't had any luck finding them so far...
I love Lanthimos, AKA Haneke Jr.
I thought of that since it is maybe his masterpiece BUT I think Thin Red Line is much more accessible for rookies that may not know what they are getting into. Thin Red Line is a little mainstream with a lot of Malick and Tree of Life rates a zero on the mainstream meter and 100% Malick in all his glory (which a lot people HATE)Thin Red Line is amazing, but Bears should start with Tree of Life.

As for Alps, check out Kanopy or Hoopla. They are both free apps through your local library. Tons of great films for free. Your library might have them. You will have to check. I requested my library get Hoopla and a week later they did. Don't forget, they work for us.

"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
Being stuck in the house has some advantages. It means I can sit down and do something like this. This is the best I could do. I wanted a way to keep track of directors as new ones come along, and I also wanted a way for people to vote so we can see how popular etc. This list can be edited by anyone, so feel free to add directors.

Alfred Hitchcock has always been my fave. He is, "the Master of Suspense".
I'm sure he has been brought up before but Scott Cooper is 4 for 4 on his films right now with Antler coming soon.
Crazy Heart
Out of the Furnace
Black Mass
Hostiles
Pretty good start!

I love the "art movie" and a good ol' slow burn but definitely a certain beauty in the "genre" director. A few I love and a couple of their less obvious films:
Walter Hill - Crossroads, Johnny Handsome
John Carpenter- Star Man, Christine
Wes Craven- Red Eye, People Under the Stairs
Clint Eastwood- High Plains Drifter, Bird
Sam Peckinpah- Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, Pat Garret and Billy the Kid
