If you are interested in world cinema(bear in mind I am yet to explore the ocean of cinema! ), then these are my favorite directors so far -
~ Ingmar Bergman (the best - I've seen almost every movie except a few, PEAK of cinema as an art) ~ Wong Kar Wai (want to see what 'poetry in motion' looks like? watch his movies) ~ Andrei Tarkovsky (a combination of both of the above, but one needs a correct state of mind to watch his movies, and be extremely non-judgemental i.e. don't try to make sense of his movies, just sit back and enjoy the art of illusion that cinema brings ) ~ Jean Luc Godard (intellectual, abstract)
I will also add Terence Malick here... and even Alfred Hitchcock : p
Some good Hollywood movies that you can look up and I personally found to be very inpsiring(only listing that which I can recall for now) -
~ Dead Poet's Society - THE MOST INSPIRING movie for me, as a student and a life-long learner ~ Remains of the Day - best movie to learn about discipline and sacrifice in the face of duty - will help you immensely in your CSE journey
If you want to watch movies that have a dreamy quality to them, like ones that have alternate realities, mind-bending type, or Lynchian type of setting then -
~ Vanilla Sky ~ Mr Nobody (this movie is philosophical, again, helps immensely in your journey of CSE, would relieve stress IMO) ~ Mulholland Drive ~ The Machinist
I guess I can go on and on about movies.. have a nice time ..look up any good director and their most famous movie or select any movie with a plot that pleases you..
PS --- I never knew we could list "cinema" as hobby for personality test? Can we really do that?
