Now, directors of smaller films don’t really stand a chance against the biggies, do they? So, to make it as fair as we possibly can, we have nominated directors of both critically acclaimed and commercially successful films, in two separate categories – Best Director of 2011 Popular and Critics. Hope you all like the idea.
Since there are two categories, we will be giving away two prizes – a DVD of each film to the winner of the poll. All you have to do is, pick your ‘Best Director’ from each category and post it in the comments section below. Terms and conditions apply.
First, Best Director 2011 Popular (Note you can pick only one director)
