Actually, I don't really LOVE Chinatown or...Mm. Actually, I don't really LOVE Chinatown or Klute, y'know. Polanski-wise, I go for The Ninth Gate, Frantic, and The Ghost Writer, all of which are too late to put on this list. Pakula is a bit more a mixed bag - I remember liking Love and Pain and the Whole Damn Thing, but I haven't seen it in years; Klute only half-impressed me, recall it losing me before the end. So those are films I didn't put on the list for a reason! <br /><br />But The Driver, tho'... That's an interesting suggestion. I used to LOVE the films of Walter Hill when I was 13, you know? But somewhere around 1985, he started on a losing streak that for all I know he's still on, because I tuned out after Johnny Handsome... still, The Driver is one that I really should revisit some day, and I've never even SEEN Hard Times...
