User:Chimeric Glider

Hello Wikipedians, I am Chimeric Glider. Before I registered as a user, I edited Wikipedia with IP addresses anonymously on various articles. I enjoy adding new contents and improve this encyclopedia. I understand that it is not always accurate, but arguably it excellently gives a general summary of each subjects, which makes research on the Internet a lot easier.

I generally edit articles on movies, everyday life, books, and a little bit of politics.

Greatest film directors

Robert Zemeckis, Leni Riefenstahl, Alfred Hitchcock, Mel Gibson, Francis Ford Coppola, William Friedkin, Richard Linklater, John Hughes

Recommended by other users

These directors are supplemented by other editor's suggestions on my talk page. When I get to see their films more I may put them in the above list. But as of now, they stay here.

Sam Peckinpah (said to be "revisionist" Wester, I will be glad to check out his work)
Sergio Leone - Western, sounds interesting
George Lucas
Martin Scorsese
Stanley Kubrick
Oliver Stone - my appreciation of him hinges on next year's W.

Recommended viewing

The list will be expanded.

Ones that are bold are some of the best.

Also there is another one I cannot simply juxtipose with the others in the list, because it is just extraordinary and transcendent. That is, The Song of Bernadette.

Controversial films

The films below may be controversial or propagandistic. I recommend them for their artistic values, however. This does not mean I endorse the all the views presented in those films.

Silent films

I am not a big fan of silent films, as the absence of dialogue kinda irks me. Nevertheless there are several elegant pieces of works in the silent film era that stand out as the classics of that period.

The Gold Rush
Intolerance (film) (but NOT Birth of a Nation)
Tillie's Punctured Romance

Film articles to edit

Conspiracy Theory (film), Arlington Road, You Can Count On Me, Nixon (film)

Films to watch

Here is the films I plan to see in the future. In the editing process, when I find movies that are likely to be good, I will add them here.
