Quentin Tarantino- Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, ...
David Lynch- Twin Peaks, Mulholland Drive
Stanley Kubrick- Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove(that's gotta be my favorite
)
Francis Coppola- Apocalypse now
Begnini- La vita e bella
Lars von Trier- Dogville, Dancer in the Dark
Pedro Almodovar- Hable con ella, Todo sobre mi madre, ...
