	Nice quiz with great directors but I think it needs more time. Also, typing in "de sica" doesn't work.

	Yeah I also tried "de sica." Also, since you don't give the year there's no reason that Soderbergh is wrong for Solaris and Coen is wrong for Ladykillers

	Really good quiz. But Alexander Mackendrick doesn't fit. A couple classics isn't enough to be in the company of some of these. Where's Hal Ashby, Fincher, Wertmuller,J-P Melville, Cassavetes, Spike Lee....? Do another quiz...

	@Horace: I think Mackendrick arguably gets a ticket into this club as a sort of representative of Ealing Studios, a pretty important chapter in the cinema history book. Is it the French New Wave? No, but pretty important. ... Plus, "Sweet Smell of Success" is probably in my all-time top 15 or so, so he's got that going for him too. ... But I certainly wouldn't argue against any that you list there, especially Cassavetes.

	More Asian directors? Like, maybe one who wasn't already canonized by the 60s? Wong Kar-Wai, Ang Lee, Tran Anh Hung, Shohei Imamura, Zhang Yimou, Takashi Miike, Hayao Miyazaki, etc.

	I would love to have seen at least one woman on the list. Lina Wertmuller and Jane Campion come to mind (even Kathryn Bigelow).
