Done (for now) watching Jonathan Rosenbaum’s 100 favorite films<\/a>, I’ve already found another list to play with. Because I love lists<\/a>. I love<\/a> ’em. Really love<\/a> ’em.<\/p>\n

Cinema Scope, my favorite movie magazine in the world, doesn’t love lists nearly as much as Rosenbaum and Time Out and They Shoot Pictures do, but for their fiftieth issue a few months ago they compiled a good one: 50 Under 50 (fifty best filmmakers under the age of fifty), with articles on each one. I’m not going to spoil the entire list (yet), but you can read excerpts and order the issue from their site<\/a>. Subscriptions are cheap, and practically pay for themselves, since now you can go ahead and cancel Film Comment.<\/p>\n

Anyway I figure I’ll take a break from watching obscure old movies, and watch some obscure (but vital<\/strong>) recent movies. Since it’s a list of filmmakers and not film, I aim to watch at least a couple titles by each.<\/p>\n

Here are some I’ve previously covered:<\/p>\n

Wes Anderson: Moonrise Kingdom<\/a><\/em> \/ Fantastic Mr. Fox<\/a><\/em> \/ The Darjeeling Limited<\/a><\/em>
\nBong Joon-ho: Mother<\/a><\/em> \/ Memories of Murder<\/a><\/em>
\nDavid Fincher: The Social Network<\/a><\/em> \/ Zodiac<\/a><\/em>
\nMichel Gondry: Be Kind Rewind<\/a><\/em> \/ The Science of Sleep<\/a><\/em>
\nJia Zhang-ke: Platform<\/a><\/em> \/ Still Life<\/a><\/em> \/ Dong<\/a><\/em>
\nMike Judge: Extract<\/a><\/em> \/ Idiocracy<\/a><\/em>
\nHarmony Korine: Mister Lonely<\/a><\/em> \/ Trash Humpers<\/a><\/em>
\nKelly Reichardt: Meek’s Cutoff<\/a><\/em> \/ Wendy & Lucy<\/a><\/em> \/ Old Joy<\/a><\/em>
\nMichael Robinson: Victory Over the Light<\/a><\/em> \/ Light is Waiting<\/a><\/em>
\nSteven Soderbergh: Haywire<\/a><\/em> \/ Everything Is Going Fine<\/a><\/em> \/ The Informant<\/a><\/em> \/ Che<\/a><\/em>
\nQuentin Tarantino: Inglorious Basterds<\/a><\/em> \/ Death Proof<\/a><\/em>
\nApichatpong Weerasethakul: Uncle Boonmee<\/a><\/em> \/ Syndromes and a Century<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
