5 Favorites #35: 5 Favorite Modern Directors
Every week, we'll pose a new "five favorites" question. You just list your five favorites that fit in that category (preferably in preference order) and you're welcome to discuss and debate the selections and see just how much you do or do not have in common with others. If you want to take a look back at our past articles to comment or enjoy, here is a post set aside to track all of our articles.
Closing out our director poll series, we arrive at the last two decades of movies where influence hasn't yet been cemented fully by history. Now for your favorite Modern directors (1990's & 2000's)
What are your 5 Favorite Modern Directors?
