With the innovation of technology, the film is getting closer and closer to the audience, and the fans' love for the masterpiece will be projected into the daily dialogue, and the small talk after tea and dinner is inseparable from the in-depth discussion of a movie.
What are we talking about? Perhaps it is to explore a personal preference, because the film is a personal image, or perhaps to explore a spiritual yearning, because the film can have a wonderful connection with people.
Every fan has their own favorite masterpieces in their hearts, different genres, different eras, different regions, it is not easy to choose their own "top ten movies", but those who can be brought out and shared must have their own favorite reasons. Everyone's top ten films have a pivotal role in their own viewing process, and this time we will focus on well-known directors around the world to see how the "top ten films" in the hearts of professionals are different from ordinary fans, and maybe we can follow the list to meet and love.
This time, we specially selected 50 directors (22 in Europe and the United States, 5 in Japan and South Korea, 21 in Chinese, and 2 in other regions), and each director's personal top ten films are selected in the same volume, classified by region, covering Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, Chinese and other regions, so that you can get intuitive information at a glance and accurately find the director you love and his favorite works.
