When was the last time you heard of fan mobbing a filmmaker for an autograph or picture every time they step out in public? When was the last time you heard about the personal life of a filmmaker in the media? Most general movigoers have no idea or even care who Directed a movie because anything that's not on camera is irrelevant to them.

You couldn't use a better photo of Ava DuVernay? Did you even try? Googling her name produces at least five more flattering options. Get it together Playlist.

I understand the impulse, but 4 for this is so dumb. It really makes me think twice about coming here.

Where's Sasha Stone to bring down the WORD OF GOD onto you people? Don't you understand that you need to verify every choice you make via Sasha Stone? She also represents every strand of feminism and stands FOR ALL WOMEN when she writes. SASHA POWER!

I feel a little lopsided just reading the list. I'm eager to experience a balance in my film viewing diet. This would be one simply place to start.
