This list/article is the fourth in a series arguing that for cinema to-be-and-to-be-taken-seriously as an art form, it must forgo and move beyond Hollywood-like visual-based ways of meaning-formation/understanding into actor-, face-, dialogue-, voice-, emo-tion-, body-, character-, feeling,-, behavior/psychology-, and tone-based ones.
Readers are strongly advised to read my three previous articles, especially (though by no means only) the lengthy theoretical/aesthetic introduction to the first, which obviously cannot be reprinted here for reasons of brevity, for a fuller understanding of this intellectu-al/critical project (and also because some important information contained therein about several directors to be discussed will also not be reprinted).
Pssst, want to check out the The 25 Most Intelligent Movies of All Time list in our new look?
