Whether or not people actually can prove they are knowledgeable in French New Wave or Italian Neorealism or Remodelist film is irrelevant. The fact of thematter is that Godard and Truffaut are far more esteemed than a lot of the names listed. I don't know how you can even put Taratino in the discussion whenhe's directed less than ten films in a 17-year period. I'm sure even he would agree that he doesn't belong in a discussion with John Ford at thistime. The same goes for James Cameron and Spike Jones. They don't even have the body of work to be considered. If you want to talk generations, then sure,throw those names in the bunch. But on a list of greatest of all time? That's extremely short-sighted.
