Female Directors

[C.F. Kane]

I've just been trying to think of really good and influential female directors, but the only ones I could come up with were Leni Reifenstal and Sofia Coppola.

Help me out here...

 

[KingOfDreams]

Penelope Spheeris

 

[The Chairman]

Amy Heckerling
Penny Marshall
Penelope Spheeris

Not sure where they'd fall under influentianl, but they're all great directors.

Good and influential female directors are hard to find.

Good however ( and possibly influential) :
Katheryn Bigelow , director of such films as near dark and point break.
Mira Nair , director of award winning movies as Salaan Bombay ( Canner award winner and OScar nominee) and Monsoon Wedding
Nancy Meyers , dorector of What Women Want and Something's Gotta give
Karyn Kusama , directed the good Girlfight and the sadly atrocious Aeon Flux
Gurinder Chadha , who directed Bend It Like Beckham
Jane Campion , who directed Holy Smoke ( 4 words : FULL FRONTAL KATE WINSLET ) , The Piano to name a few



Those are all i can think of right now , besides the one you mentioned KAne

I was being sarcastic

Kusama really has that manhater look on her face. I remember reading the set report that Harry Knowles gave of Aeon Flux and even he made the comment that although nothing happened and Karyn easily gave answers to the questions , she looked like a manhater .

But then again , how can you not be disgusted when looking at Harry.
But Karynb really does look like a lesbian

 

[xwolverine2]

her name even reminds me of karyn kim.........."hospitality management" assasine from killbill2...lol
