I feel as though one could name almost any Kurosawa, Anderson (Wes or Paul Thomas), Kubrick, or Hitchcock film and I will likely Ooo and Ahh about it. Fincher and Jonze are approaching the same level in a contemporary sense, Jonze more of an expert in storytelling and Fincher a remarkable visual composer.
Movies are fun
