Top 5s - Current Director: Martin Scorsese [Vote Now!]

[hennessy]

This is a thread on the music page which I thought we'd adapt to directors

Basically, list your top 10 [or however many you like, no more than 10 though] films by the director in the title - 1st. out of ten earns 10 points, 10th earns 1 point, etc.
Some directors people will not be able to think of 10 for so this may change to 5

I then add up all the points to find out TiBB's favourite films by each director.

yes I've basically copy and pasted the text

*I've never seen Munich. I'll add it to my 'to see list'.
** And I agree with Setanta, I think top 5 will be enough for directors. Spielberg is obviously a different case.

[MrGaryy]

yeah I think Top 5 is more realistic.

[Tom4784]
