Avg Rating Directors Name (number of films based on)
Ranked according to the Average rating of their movies... only includes Directors with 2 or more films rated...
still a tentative list... as there are still alot of great movies still to rate from these Directors.
Granted this isn't exactly the way I would rank them, but it is damn close and very interesting to see how it all pans out. With only a few slightly misleading averages.
Go to My Favorite Directors And Their Best Films: Sorted By Tier to see the Films I based these rankings on and which ratings are missing from consideration, although, these averages have no bearing on what tier i decide to put them in.
A film that Sergio Leone was said to have admired was Vera Cruz... a 1950s Hollywood western that inspired the style of his spagetti westerns.
never heard that... will have to check it out... leone heresay has turned me on to a lot of my favorite old westerns already. high noon, john ford movies to name a few.
wow, cooper, lancaster, borgnine, bronson, and elam... amazing western cast at least
