Have to think a while about the others..

[Bengal]

Kubrick: The Shining tied with Eyes Wide Shut
Allen: None
Fellini: None
Lynch: Twin Peaks (I know it's TV but it's his best IMHO)
Truffaunt: None

[Cygnus X1]

Kubrick: 2001 , Shining close second
Woody Allen: The Sleeper (?)
Don't know about the rest, I don't watch movies much at all.

Kubrick- Tie between A Clockwork Orange & Dr. Strangelove
Woody Allen- Crimes & Misdemeanors
Fellini- 8 1/2
Lynch- Mullholland Dr., but I agree w/ Bengal about Twin Peaks
Truffaut- The Last Metro is the only one I've seen

[Newc]

Kubrick - Blade Runner & 2001
Allen - Nothing really
Don't think I've seen a Fellini film
Lynch - Dune. Naked Lunch was interesting until I realised it was about 3 Brits in India who spend all day smoking opium and sucking off Hindu peasants.
Trffaut - Only seen F.451 as far as I know.

As I understand it, the works of these directors are not about the story or the character portrayal, but about the "technical" aspects of the actual filming process - lighting, cinematography (camera angles and scene settings). They're like the shredders who can't play anything that is moving, but it is filled with incredibly impressive technique.

These guys make "films" - everyone else makes "movies".

In the line between "Art" and "Entertainment", they are on the "Art" side. That's not to say their work isn't entertaining in its own way, but they're a different form of entertainment with a different target audience.

[necrotechno]

1) Stanley Kubrick - Dr. Strangelove, followed closely by The Killing
2) Woody Allen - I actually like Zelig, but it's the only one I can even stand
3) Federico Fellini - The Clowns
4) David Lynch - The Elephant Man
5) Francois Truffaut - The 400 Blows

Newc,
Ridley Scott did Blade Runner...

[Newc]

Did he? Seems awfully similar to Kubrick's work. Scott also did Alien, right?
