one story can be depicted in many ways and it seems that american filmmakers always got the right recipe.. they know how to create a masterpiece
can u imagine The Godfather directed by some japanese guy with japanese actors? well it is possible.. but im pretty sure that it wouldnt be considered as a classic movie..

yeah i guess im just trying to point out that most of the directors mentioned had a lot of different influences from around the world. its always gonna be subjective and from the point of view of films we might enjoy cause we culturally understand them, then american films would win.
but being objective more in the scheme of things, the most meaningful directors in cinema history are not all american.

Javier:
What are these "failed" movies that Scorsese has directed? The lowest graded movie for me is probably The Age of Innocence, which I give a C-. Other than that, pretty much every movie ranges from C+ to A+ and most of them are closer to the A side.
