  1. Only directors from whom I've seen multiple pictures, of course. And by no means am I trying to identify the best directors, just the ones in whose movies I consistently have the most interest or from whom I consistently derive the most pleasure.
  2. Top Tier
  3. Akira Kurosawa
  4. Robert Altman
  5. Richard Linklater
  6. Stanley Kubrick
  7. Alfred Hitchcock
  8. Martin Scorsese
  9. Federico Fellini
  10. Francis Ford Coppola
  11. Woody Allen
  12. Charlie Chaplin
  14. Second Tier
  15. Krszystof Kieslowski
  16. Steven Spielberg
  17. Hayao Miyazaki
  18. Werner Herzog
  19. Elia Kazan
  20. Terry Gilliam
  21. Joel Coen
  22. Quentin Tarantino
  23. David Lynch
  25. I expect this list to mutate as my cinematic experience grows over time and I get to see multiple movies by other directors.

I owe Rushmore a second viewing. I disliked Royal strongly the first time and loved it the second. Haven't seen Bottle Rocket, but I'm sure I'll get to it eventually. The Life Aquatic looks somewhat promising as well.
