Robert Altman


Personally I hated all of his movies but his movies did definitely make you think. None of his movies were of the standard model. They may have not had a protagonist or they may have had a very darkly humored ending. As for "Nashville" not having a definite protagonist, i have seen movies like this before that managed to keep the stories allot more coherent, the lines got a little too blurred as to the point of what was going on. As for "The Player", it was definitely his best work. This is no to say i thought it was that spectacular but his own making fun of how Hollywood worked and having the movie within a movie subplot worked very nicely, in his defense. All his movies were linked by a sense of; well to put it simply, strangeness. None of his movies seemed very close to reality even for a movie.
