John Huston

Is the best classic Hollywood director? He mogs Ford and Hawks so hard it's not even funny.

      Oh, please. I read his autobiography and constantly rewatch three of his movies (The Maltese Falcon, The Asphalt Jungle) and Chinatown (actor). Love his voice.

    He's on the same level as Walsh and Capra, but Ford and Hawks are above him. Ford is greatest filmmaker of all time

        Neither of those would even break the top 10 of Ford's filmography

          Not much of a top ten, majority of its bogged down by John Wayne’s stale wooden acting chops.

            I get it, you're a Bogie fan. Ford is still better than Huston by a mile. He pumped out great film after great film for more than 30 years. He shat out masterpieces, sometimes more than one in a year, meanwhile Huston has what, a handful of genuinely great movies to his credit? There's no comparison

              Too bad most of them are forgettable and dated.

    It is impossible to hate this character. He is the perverse troony hater who secretly loves them.

    Lol no. Huston is only a 'good' director, not massively original.

    John Ford is an overrated hack. Overly sentimental and clumsy. Hawks is the best of the bunch. Huston had the most relevance and variety up to the 80s though.

    Someone had a story about going to meet John Huston at a castle he bought in Ireland, and Huston and Peter O’Toole were out in the yard drunk off their asses wearing kimonos riding horses and shooting guns. I think he would’ve been a good friend.

      He lived a very cosmopolitan life. Was a writer and painter in Paris. Then thrived in Hollywood.
