Popcorn Culture - Supercut: The Director’s Chair

From Orson Welles to Steven Spielberg, Akira Kurosawa to Jordan Peele, Federico Fellini to Greta Gerwig, directors are very often the engine that drives movies. Many outshine onscreen stars, with particular styles and themes associated with them, and often go on to shape entire genres of filmmaking. In this Supercut, we look at the person behind the curtain, so to speak, and talk about our favourite auteurs.
