Quite alot of work ahead if you wanna consider her as a top director. Like 5 amazing films. So far she has 1 average film.

Steven Soderbergh:

Sex Lies and Videotape
Traffic
Ocean's Eleven

[/ QUOTE ]

Not a great Director by any stretch if these are the three films you list as his best work.

[/ QUOTE ]

was AB saying to list the very best films of a certain director?? I just thought he was giving examples of the director's work...

As for Soderburg...my favorites are The Limey, sex, lies & videotape, and Solaris...

Peter Weir
The Last Wave
Fearless
Witness

Could also substitute Dead Poet's Society or Mosquito Coast in there. I also really enjoyed Truman Show, but it gets a bad rap.

I liked The Limey - and also The underneath, and Solaris, though I like the others I mention a bit more.

The ending of Solaris I thought was awkward and unconvincing.
