Best three-film run for a director
This might be supposed to go in the other forum but I wasn't sure which to put it in.
Basically, what do you think is the best three-film consecutive run for a single director? |
Re: Best three-film run for a director
Rushmore Royal Tenenbaums Life Aquatic is my favorite.

Re: Best three-film run for a director
I might actually go with Amateur, Flirt and Henry Fool by Hartley but :up: to those three as well.
My pick'd be one of these: Wong Kar-wai: Chungking Express, Ashes of Time, Fallen Angels. Peter Greenaway: The Falls, The Draughtsman's Contract, A Zed & Two Noughts. Orson Welles: The Lady From Shanghai, Macbeth, Othello. John Sayles: Lone Star, Men with Guns, Limbo. Gillian Armstrong: Starstruck, Mrs. Soffel, High Tide. Shohei Imamura: Vengeance is Mine, Eijanaika?, The Ballad of Narayama. Juzo Itami: The Funeral, Tampopo, A Taxing Woman. |

Re: Best three-film run for a director
This seems awfully easy to find. Just in Korea:
Kim Ki-duk - Spring Summer Autumn Winter...and Spring, Samaritan Girl, 3-Iron Park Chan-wook - Vengeance Trilogy (with the awesome short film Cut in between somewhere) Bong Joon-ho - Memories of a Murder, The Host, Mother Lee Chang-dong - Oasis, Secret Sunshine, Poetry Kim Jee-woon - A Bittersweet Life, The Good the Bad and the Weird, I Saw the Devil (plus A Tale of Two Sisters preceding these) |
Re: Best three-film run for a director
It is pretty easy to find:
Abbas Kiarostami: Close-Up, Life...And Nothing More, Through the Olive Trees Hou Hsiao-Hsien: Summer at Grandpa's, The Time to Live an the Time to Die, Dust in the Wind Hou again: A City of Sadness, The Puppermaster, Good Men, Good Women (the third of each of these is a bit weaker than the others) Ozu Yasujiro: Late Spring, Early Summer, Tokyo Story ( also sub in any three postwar Ozu films) Buster Keaton: Our Hospitality, Sherlock Jr., The Navigator |
Re: Best three-film run for a director
Hitchcock: Vertigo -> North by Northwest -> Psycho
P. T. Anderson: Magnolia -> Boogie Nights -> Punch-Drunk Love -> There Will Be Blood -> The Master (pick which one to start the three) Sergio Leone: Fistful of Dollars -> For a Few Dollars More -> The Good, the Bad and the Ugly David Lynch: Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with me -> Lost Highway -> The Straight Story -> Mulholland Drive -> Inland Empire (again pick which one to start the three) :D |
