First things first, obviously very happy to find this place. I thought it’d be good to have an initial director discussion thread.

Personally David Fincher and Darren Aaronofsky — I can watch their films time and time again. I’m currently watching The Whale for the second time and I think it’s one of the most powerful movies I’ve ever seen.

Looking forward to hearing from the community.

  • I’ve enjoyed everything from Benson and Moorhead. Unique ideas, creative shots, and interesting stories that aren’t spoonfed, but without getting lost up their own asses. Probably my favorite lesser known filmmakers.

    I’d recommend starting with The Endless. It’s about two brothers returning to the UFO death cult they’d escaped as kids, and having to face the possibility that maybe the cult had been right all along.
