Nice list - I imagine you are from Europe. You have a lot of good directors from the 40s, 50s, etc., I just haven't seen them. I'll add them - thanks!
Ha ha! Nope, I'm from Texas, currently living in New Mexico. I started watching Eddie Muller's Noir Alley series on TCM last fall and have been devouring noirs and B crime pictures from the '40s and '50s since then. So many of them, made on the cheap as second features and filler, can really pack a punch. Studio execs and the Production Code didn't keep quite so close a watch on what they considered negligible films. This gave screen writers and directors a little more freedom to express themselves. They are surprisingly good.
