Spanish filmmaker Luis Buñuel died in 1983, but his films continue to inspire many filmmakers today, including Woody Allen and David O. Russell. New York’s Metrograph theater is presenting a series of the surrealist filmmaker’s work from March 30 to April 6 entitled “Buñuel in France” that will feature five of his films. Buñuel directed 35 movies between 1929 and 1977.

Here are seven filmmakers who have listed a Buñuel film in their top 10 movies of all time.
Woody Allen
Allen’s favorite Buñuel film is 1972’s “The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,” the famous comedy about six middle-class people attempting to have a meal together. Allen wore his inspiration on his shirt sleeve in his 2011 fantasty-comedy “Midnight in Paris,” casting the actor Adrien De Van to play Buñuel in a scene also featuring the surrealist painter Salvador Dalí (Adrien Brody) and visual...

The 2011 RopeofSilicon Movie Awards I know the Oscars are still a little over a month away, but for me the RopeofSilicon Awards are the moment I begin putting the old year behind me and truly begin focusing on the new one. This is the fourth year I've done this and to celebrate the year's films I gained inspiration from one of the movie posters I declared one of the best of the year and put together my own poster for just this occasion, taking images from several of 2011's films and creating the collage you see below. The poster is made up of films and performances I enjoyed on one level or another, and while you'll find a couple of duplicates here and there, all-in-all there are 61 films represented and I've included a high resolution version should you want to give it a closer look. How many of the films can you name?...

Do you know someone -- or perhaps you are someone -- who seems out of step with the current time because he or she deeply romanticizes another era in which they never lived? In Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris," Gil Pender (Owen Wilson) is that person, and the era he loves is Paris in the 1920s.
"Midnight in Paris" opens with some gorgeous shots of the City of Light where Gil is vacationing with his fiancée, Inez (Rachel McAdams), and her right-wing parents. Gil is a successful Hollywood screenwriter who dreams of finishing his first novel -- about a nostalgia-shop owner -- in Paris, where many of his literary heroes worked and played.
Inez constantly belittles Gil and babbles about wanting a house in Malibu when she's not running off with her pretentious friends. You can't imagine why the gentle-natured Gil would be engaged to this vapid (pardon our French) bitch with overbearing parents,...

Woody Allen makes a film annually and every few years critics latch on to his latest work and declare it his “comeback”, or his “best in years”. That seems to be the case with his latest, the romantic comedy Midnight In Paris. It is a great film but I think that Allen’s been on a roll. His last two films Whatever Works, and You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger, were two of his very best (both high on my top ten lists of the past two years), and while I don’t think the new one is as good as either of those, it’s highly recommended.
Midnight In Paris stars Owen Wilson as Gil, a screenwriter and self-described “Hollywood hack” who is tackling his first novel, about a man who runs a nostalgia shop. An apt subject since Gil himself is nostalgic about the past, particularly Paris in the 1920s,...
