*Hitchcock - Everything I've seen, I've loved.
*David Cronenburg - The Fly!!!
*Wes Anderson - Very cool director. Can't wait for the Life Aquatic!
Paul Thomas Anderson - Boogie Nights, Punch-Drunk Love, Magnolia. This guy has some great films under his belt.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've had as much difficulty as you in finding good independent and cult cinema. It's hard for me because I live in Germany, so I can't go to a German store and get something because... well I dont' speak German. And of course the military base's power zone thingy has absolutely no independent films, well not many anyways, so I have to order them myself from the video store.

Some great films in each category, I've seen most of them, if I havevn't then I've heard of them and hear they're good.

For Drama
