Late last year, Sight and Sound magazine issued its Directors’ poll for the Greatest Films of All Time to accompany its Critics poll.

This involved asking the world’s leading directors – 480 of them – what ten films they believe to be the greatest of all time.

FilmInk has decided to supplement this poll, asking some of our favourite Australian directors for their top ten. We will publish the collective results at the end of the year.

Paris, Texas (1984) d: Wim Wenders

Come and See (1985) d: Elem Klimov

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) d: Stanley Kubrick

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) d: Andrew Dominik

Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1982) d: George Miller

Eraserhead (1977) d: David Lynch

Boyhood (2014) d: Richard Linklater

Terror Nullius (2018) d: Soda Jerk
