This was a thread from another forum that I found quite interesting, so I thought I'd ask it here. I'm sure that most people here started watching movies as just entertainment - so which film or filmmaker really opened your eyes and discover the medium?
This is a question I'll find difficult to answer myself; since I've been obsessed with film since forever, really.

Tarantino and Rodriguez > Hitchcock > Kubrick > Kurosawa
Heh...I don't even like Rodriguez anymore.
