This week, we deep dive into the films of five of some of the most influential film directors of the past few decades and what makes their movies look and feel distinctive from one another.
Our choices for the directors we discuss in the episode are both well known and foundational to the film industry with our picks such as Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan, and are growing names within the evolving industry such as Robert Eggers. There of course many exceptional current and past directors. We decided to pick five directors with styles that have stark contrasts to one another to analyze what it is that gives them each their specific feeling.
The film directors we discuss are:
-Quentin Tarantino (Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Inglourious Basterds, etc...)
-Martin Scorsese (The Wolf of Wall Street, Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Shutter Island, etc...)
-Christopher Nolan (The Odyssey, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Interstellar, Oppenheimer, etc...)
-Robert Eggers (The Witch, The Lighthouse, The Northman, Nosferatu, and coming soon, Werwulf.)
-Denis Villeneuve (The Dune Trilogy, Blade Runner 2049, Sicario, Prisoners, etc...)
