I agree with you 100% on the level of professionalism... one could also call it "consistency"... like at a good factory. That makes it even more unfortunate - as the infrastructure is there, but now used for purpose other than art.

***....and little marvel like Hannah & her sister..
Yes, but Woody is one of the bright stars here and I wish him all the luck.

***A very big field...So what is good for you,what make you says 2%
and what make me do the same ???
What is good for me? I would tend to treat movie art like any other art - which is to say that primitive art is still art, but well-polished fake is worthless.
The problem with modern American films can be many-fold, but perhaps the bigest one is that of a junkie nature. Like in junkie's like, where true and natural life's pleasures are being replaced with their stronger substitute, same has happened with the US films. That cycle started about 40 years ago, and I see to signs of recovery. So each new film is just the old one with more effect and more bizzarre stuff, and less and less real substance. And once you start on that slope there is no hope, I am afraid. So only those directors who are either completely protected from any financial need, or those so dedicated to art they really don't care, can produce things worth watching in today's environment. They account for that remaining 2%. As a rule, these are never commercial successes.
