North American Cinema
No. 08 · USA · Minnesota
America's dark comedians. They find the absurd in the violent and the tragic in the mundane. Genre movies that secretly hate genre — noirs without resolution, westerns without heroes.
No. 07 · USA · Tennessee
Cinema's greatest crate-digger. He builds new things from beautiful wreckage — spaghetti westerns, blaxploitation, Hong Kong action. His films are love letters to film itself, written in blood.
