You mean guys trying to hook-up with you because they thought you were a Korean girl? I'm not surprised, judging by some of the riff-raff and miscreants on this board!

I think you mean Italian-American. It still doesn't make him a great Italian filmmaker. Do you consider Steven Spielberg an Israeli director, or M Knight Shyamalan an Indian director?

This thread is so pretentious. Oh, look at me! I know more than one European director. They are great because I know about them and you don't.

Can anyone argue against of my top three directors; in no particular order, Kubrick, Scorcese, Hitchcock?


My favourite American Director is George Lucas. No! Quentin Tarrantino! Was I right?

>My favourite Director in the WWW is Wim Wenders of company Roadmovies eins klein Deutschen Rundfunk.

The name-dropping's merely a means to refute/support the op's claim that the greatest filmmakers were all Italian. Most of these names shouldn't be too obscure for a casual movie buff.
