Film Directors Griffon Knows Well

This list contains film directors I know provided that I have seen at least 5 (or more) their films. They are ranked by -average- rating I have given to -all- their films I have seen and represented by 3 films which I like more (but it does not mean that all these films are among my all-time favourites). Check the director if you have seen at least one his film (not necessary from this list). The list is purely subjective and doesn't consider meanings of critics and other people. I know a lot more directors, but I still haven't seen enough of their films. I am already eager to see how this list will look next year :)
