She's lit, top 3 working directors for me. Check out Night Moves.

Love her. Wendy and Lucy is an all time favorite of mine. Old Joy and Certain Women are both great. Meek's Cutoff and River of Grass are fine. I still need to see Night Moves and her shorts, but she has one of the most promising careers out there, I'd say.

She's one of my fave contemporaries for sure. Not liking Wendy and Lucy is pretty unchill tbh. Old Joy is fantastic. Night Moves is fairly solid, probably needs a rewatch for me. River of Grass is decent but very much feels like a directorial debut. I hope to fuck she adapts some Alice Munro stories next. That would be a potential masterpiece.

After reevaluating this..... I'd say yes, she's one of my favorite still active directors as well.
Maren Ade we're all still anxiously awaiting that Toni Erdmann follow up. Damn. Coens haven't done a great film since 2010.
Sofia Coppola's last masterpiece was Marie Antoinette, tho her last very good movie were her last 2.
Emerald Fennell.... I haven't seen Saltburn yet, but based on reactions... it doesn't look like it's better than Promising Young Woman.
Andrea Arnold we're still waiting for that non Cow oriented follow-up to American Honey.
So I'd say Reichardt is leading the pack right now.
1. Meek's Cutoff - 9.5/10 Maybe the last great film????? Well, The Wolf of Wall Street, American Honey, and True Grit are a hell of an Americana quadrilogy... so I dunno. But it's a good argument.
2. Wendy and Lucy - 8.5/10
3. Certain Woman - 8/10
4. River of Grass - 7/10
5. Oldjoy - 6/10
Let's see if she has another breakthru.
