Gregory Peck spoke for many when he told an audience at his AFI Life Achievement tribute that, ".artistry is more important than making a buck..". Of course, he was so right. These days one is lucky to see ten great films a year. There is so much crap. Directors like Lean, Wyler, Stevens, Kazan, Hitchcock, Ray, Welles, Huston, Visconti, Fellini, Peckinpah, Reed and Lindsay Anderson. These were film-makers that made the cinema a great art form. It's time to be great again..PLEASE!!
