If I had done a top 12 list now, given the information I learned, it would be:
- Akira Kurosawa (Japan)
- Yasujiro Ozu (Japan)
- Satyajit Ray (India)
- D. W. Griffith (Hollywood)
- Charles Chaplin (Hollywood)
- John Ford (Hollywood)
- Alfred Hitchcock (Hollywood)
- Orson Welles (Hollywood)
- Fritz Lang (Europe)
- Sergei Eisenstein (Europe)
- Jean Renoir (Europe)
- Lean Luc Godard (Europe)
Out:
- Stanley Kubrick
- Andrei Tarkovsky
- Ingmar Bergman
- Federico Fellini
Those out are less influential than pioneers such as Eisenstein, Chaplin, Griffith and Lang.
