Most Influential Films From the Most Influential Filmmakers of All Time (Looper)

"It's said that art imitates life, and that's largely true. Another thing art imitates is — well, art. Filmmakers have been churning out their work for more than a century, and regardless of any one person's contribution to the art form, they were all influenced by those who came before them. You don't go to film school and not learn the techniques and methods used by successful filmmakers, and those who skipped film school learn by watching what the greats accomplished. Ever since Eadweard Muybridge created the first motion picture in 1878, people have been telling stories through film. Some of the greatest filmmakers of all time continue to entertain the masses long after they shuffled off their mortal coils, as their work stands as an enduring example of their accomplishments. Another immortal achievement of the greats is the influence they have had on those who followed them." - looper.com
