Directors

501 Movie Directors Checklist

You may have heard of the "1001 before you die" book series.  I think the 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die book was the first of the series to come out and has now gone through several editions.  There are things from all different areas of art and architecture and foods and more.  Now they have been publishing books for specific genres of movies like 101 Horror Movies You Must See Before You Die and 101 Sci-Fi Movies You Must See Before You Die.  But they've also done ones about people in the film industry like 501 Movies Stars and 501 Movie Directors.  You can debate endlessly how good the selections of these books actually are, but I at least found the 501 Movie Directors book to be a good resource for discovering new directors and thus new movies that I might have not heard about before.

Now here comes the incredibly geeky part.  I'm sure a lot of you have gone through checklists of different lists of "greatest movies" to see how many you have seen for your own interest and to compare with others.  Well, I thought I'd post the list of movie directors from this book here on this site to let you check them off to see how many you have seen.

I would not be surprised if I'm the only one who fills out and posts my own checklist, because it's a long list.  But I would be highly amused if even one other person posted their results as well.  Either way, in the future I'll be working my way down the list trying to expose myself to more work by some of the directors on this list I haven't experienced yet.
