This is difficult, as for every one I recall,I can think of another.......I shall say that these were the "first favourites" to really effect me...humour, books, personality, LOVE. My netflix queue has 487 films in it, not including the 1021 I have already seen from the original queue...... books,records,films,kisses.....ahhhhhh......
French and Italian films really hold my interest,are my preference....that being said, I believe Almodovar to be the greatest contemporary film-maker....succeeding the earlier ranks of Truffaut,Fellini, and Pasolini,.............Antonioni,De Sica,Wertmuller,Allen,Bergman,etc..
