btw. i won't be able to add all the names today/tomorrow, but then i have two days without any obligations to capitalism and thus either on Wed or Thu i will catch up!

[Silga]

Thanks for running this thread, Jiri!

It's not only helpful for Flip in selecting upcoming director polls, but for me as well. I now have a tidy list of filmographies I still need to work on.

[Holdrüholoheuho]

hopefully, this systematic undertaking will not kill all the haphazardness of this forum

[Holdrüholoheuho]

i am only about halfway through including all the new names but there is the name "Richard Mulligan" (greg???).
we have polled Robert Mulligan.
Richard Mulligan seems to be an actor who didn't make any films as director.
so, is it is a mistake (Richard = Robert)? or Richard made some films?
------------------------
otherwise, i included a few new names by myself.
"Petr Skala" (futile attempt), "Jürgen Reble" (greennui???), "Herbert Achternbusch" (sally???, wba???), "Ulrich Seidl" (???).

[brian d]

oh, just to give you more work thought of another one i'd like to see us poll at some point: benoit jacquot. i have 10 of his

[flip]

the Jurgen Reble retrospective i saw in london was one of the best live cinema experiences i've had, but i haven't seen near enough to help with a poll unfortunately. seen two seidl, none from the others (including jacquot).

[Holdrüholoheuho]

in my "Jürgen Reble" viewings i count also "his" Schmelzdahin films (which i hope is okay???).

[flip]

i wouldn't want to be strict about what counts as a reble film, if we run a reble poll, because it will be hard enough even with relaxed criteria to get many votes, but i'm not optimistic we'll have the views anyway. if i could watch more, i would though!

[wba]

I have only 2 by Achternbusch and 4 by Seidl.

[oscarwerner]

[Holdrüholoheuho]

so, no edits of the posts above but new posts below, please.
and in case you notice something wrong, those ommissions or mistakes were unintentional and once you report them i will fix them.

[wba]

you forgot my 10+ for Blake Edwards.

[wba]

Nora Ephron: greg 7+

And I don't think Nora Ephron will work for the kinds of polls we are currently doing, cause Imdb credits her only with 8 films as director.

[wba]

I also have 10+ by Richard Donner

[Holdrüholoheuho]

you forgot my 10+

fixed.
--------------
i will keep recording 7+ viewings for directors whose oeuvre is less than 10.
even if we might never do a poll.
it is not a big deal to keep those few more names.

[wba]

I just noticed by chance that I also have 7+ by Dante Lam (while unsuccessfully searching for a director named Wu Jing).

[wba]

Also have 10+ Barry Levinson.

[wba]

And 10+ by Francois Ozon

[wba]

7+ by Ruggero Deodato
7+ by Riccardo Freda
7+ by Rolf Olsen
7+ by Harald Braun
7+ by Ringo Lam
10+ by Erich Waschneck
7+ by Christian Petzold
7+ by SABU
10+ by Sogo Ishii
7+ Richard Thorpe
10+ Richard Donner

[wba]

Does anyone know who this mysterious Wu Jing director is? I can't find anything about him online, though greg says he has seen 10+ films by him.

[wba]

7+ by Umberto Lenzi
