I love Videodrome. I was planning to watch Scanners tonight because I still haven't seen enough of Cronenberg's work. I don't think I've ever seen a sexier film poster than the one for Scanners.

I'm only familiar with Godard at the moment, mainly because it is so difficult to find many foreign films in this godawful city. I've also seen Bande à part and Le petit soldat, and I'm forever looking for more. The only non-English films that ever seem to be for sale at reasonable prices are Amélie, The Seventh Seal, Wild Strawberries, Metropolis and Downfall. I love them all, but some variety would be nice! Perhaps I'm a bit dim for not using the internet to buy more...haha. It's probably a good idea to torrent some until I can get them on DVD, but I hate having to watch films in low quality.

I haven't seen too many of his films yet, so I cannot really comment on his recent works (everything I have seen is supeb, however). The DVD shops that are going down right now should be selling them dirt cheap, though, so I'll be picking up as many as I can over the next week. I've heard good things about Match Point, but his recent films really do seem to split the fandom.
OH, and that picture from À bout de souffle on your profile is great! I love that film. Jean-Paul Belmondo is such a great actor. I need to see him in more roles.

Love and Death, probably. I love the Dostoevsky, Bergman and Tolstoy parodies, but I might be biased towards the film because it was the first of his that I saw.
In terms of screenwriting and direction (which are better indicators of his abilities, I tihnk), Annie Hall is my favourite. The script is so naturalistic and really captures most of the subtleties of real-life dialogue. And I love Diane Keaton's outfits. She's so quirky.

Yep, but I changed it a bit because somebody on another board kept deliberately spelling it as it is here.
