@winoguy17: Speaking of the Coen Brothers, have you seen The Man Who Wasn't There. Fantastic! A modern Noir instant classic, with the most beautiful B & W cinematography (by Roger Deakins) I've EVER seen. I also love their little-known A Serious Man, which having a Jewish girlfriend was helpful in understanding.![]()
For Billy Wilder it's Sunset Blvd. and The Apartment. For Hitchcock it's Vertigo.
What has become of Jim Jarmusch? I loved his Coffee And Cigarettes, especially the scene with Tom Waits and Iggy Pop.
