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.
I’m not looking for which director is best, but which Best Director win is best. So you may love James Cameron as a director, but hate that he won for Titanic. You would not list James Cameron.
