My favorite films directed by female directors
22 titles |

TCM has been running a series on women filmmakers. I've watched a few that I hadn't seen before. It got me thinking about making this kind of a list. It isn't easy because I don't necessarily track the gender of the director in any orderly fashion. But here are the films that I think of when I consider films by women that I greatly enjoyed.

Best Pictures of the Year

My choice for the Best Picture of the Year for each calendar year since the Academy Awards started but not restricted to the Academy nominees. Sometimes I agree with the Oscars, more often I don't. I may have choices that were not actually eligible for the year I am listing them. I'm just using the US release date listed on IMDB. This is not an exact science.

Here is the order I would rank the best picture winners.
Directors who make/made films I like

They may not be the greatest directors, but many great directors base their reputations on two or three great films. (And a few simply make films that I don't like.) But this is a list of those directors whose names appear over and over when I watch my favorite films. So quantity and consistency in their body of work are criteria, above and beyond the high quality of the films.
They made some stinkers too. That has to be allowed for or I wouldn't have anyone on the list.

Somewhat in order, features only, no shorts, and stopped at 1936 with Modern Times.

TIME magazine treated the Godfather films and Lord of the Rings as single entries, so I did too.
