Has there ever been a better “one for you, one for me” filmmaker than David Lowery? Perhaps Christopher Nolan and his run from The Prestige through The Dark Knight Rises is the most obvious example, but in the current landscape where Disney owns everything, the jumps between Pete’s Dragon, A Ghost Story, The Green Knight, and Peter Pan & Wendy seems even more impressive. All his films, whether distributed by Disney or A24, still carry his signature “eco-friendly” stamp, emphasizing Earth’s natural greens and browns common among classic eco-fables. And for many, he is still batting a thousand.
With that said, what is your favorite film directed by David Lowery?
