who are some directors who only have one great film?

yall can also post screenwriters

Made this thread because of Mathieu Kassovitz. Crazy how this guy made La Haine and then never anything even close to that level

boogie nights
everything else is

delete this

Neil Blomkamp

Zygote is a great short tho

ban

Charles Laughton the king

Marlon Brando

The definition of one hit wonder director is the dude who did Donnie darko

Southland Tales got that huge budget and half of Hollywood in it and sent that dudes career crashing back to earth

until I rewatch Chinatown…unnamed Rosemary’s Baby Director

his Repulsion and Macbeth are also masterpieces Polish debut Knife In The Water was amazing too Cul De Sac great

theres a reason Rick Dalton whispered his name in hushed tones in Hollywood like he was already a mythological character by 1969 and it wasnt only because of Rosemarys Baby. dude was really a midget king of cinema by then. reminder that he grew up in a nazi concentration camp and so can portray the darkest s*** imaginable with no "pretence".

Tom Schiller, Mario Peixoto, Chris Petit, and Allen Barron

Repulsion…persona/ 3 women vibes would that be accurate?

A bit yeah definitely worth watching for the set design alone

Catherine Denueve brutal role

Neil Marshall (The Descent)

I still believe

Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive)

Josh Trank

Pusher Trilogy>>

I’ll watch that one, have you seen ‘death & the maiden’ how is that one

Only God Forgives and The Neon Demon are amazing

Thought we were talking about hits
