20 Famous Contemporary Directors and Their Favorite Movies - Page 6

Ever wondered what your favorite director's favorite films are? Well here's Taste of Cinema's list of 20 contemporary director's favorite movies (gathered from different sources and on some cases including only a fraction of them).
First there's a picture of the director and then his/her favorites. Check the director if you have seen at least one of his/her films. Note: Some of the directors have the same favorites and I can only put a film once on this list, so if you want a whole and accurate picture of their favorites you should read the Taste of Cinema's article.
