So many of my favorite movies are not representative of the director's overall body of work that I couldn't begin to do this.
The Man Who Fell to Earth is absolutely brilliant, but the other Nicholas Roeg movie I watched was incredibly cheesy and B quality.
Even with Kubrik, Felini, or Lynch I'd be stretching to pick 5 movies when I really only love three or four. I could probably pick 5 by Jarmusch and yet I would call him my favoriter director.
I did really like Inland Empire massively though. My wife is way more into Lynch than me, and she fell asleep during it, but I watched the whole thing and was spellbound. It struck me as the culmination of everything Lynch had done so far, and was incredibly funny towards the end. I can totally see why people would get bored with it, it just connected for me.
