These guys had it right up 'til the end.

I think Robert Bresson and Tarkovsky's farewell films (L'Argent and The Sacrifice) are their best overall - and they made some great stuff before.

Particularly interesting is Bresson who with his 2nd to last film, The Devil, Probably made a completely current, zeitgeist capturing film in his mid-70s far more modern in feeling and technique than anything he had done before.

I second Becker's Le Trou. I add Elem Klimov and Larisa Shepitko, they sadly didn't do a lot of movies (she died at 41, he lost interest in making films) but their finals films are (war) masterpieces and the fact that they were husband and wife make the thing even more amazing.
