"There's got to be a renaissance of cinema sometime, but I guess I'd better not hold my breath."

Directors today, are the products of mega Hours of Television viewing and education in Film Schools. Tv teaches derivitive, inexpensive, cookie-cutter forms of entertainment. Film Schools teach you how to make The Deal. What else could one expect in our cinema, today, other than hours and hours of already been seen, cud ?

All of those directors that you mentioned were/are craftsmen.

What makes these people different, from those who aspire to create something special, is that they dared to reach into their personal soul and life experience, and expose it for all to see...take it or leave it. They wanted to say something, within the confines of a commercial business.

Everyone today wants to play it safe. Because it's easier to get The Deal.
