Kinda surprised we don't have one already. (P.S. do not misinterpret the previous sentence as an accusation of sexism). We don't have a lot doing worthwhile things. Bigelow gets a lot of good reviews, but does anyone compare her to Scorsese or Nolan? There are great women in directing, but because there are many times more men in the industry, the women may oftentimes get overshadowed, so let's help them out a little.
I was on Imdb looking at many "greatest foreign/international directors" lists, and Agnes Varda hardly ever came up. Kurosawa, Tarkovsky, Bergman, Miyazaki, Jackson and Fellini made it in those lists all the yime, but where's Varda? You could probably include Sofia Coppola in the cream of the crop leagues, but can she leave the same impact her father did? Maybe if Greta Gerwig releases another hit movie, she could end up there. Here's rooting for her.
