Re: Which director had the most "greatest performances" of an actor

I'd like to include Fred Zinnemann since I believe he directed these actors and actresses to their best performance. Gary Cooper in High Noon (1952) Ethel Waters in The Member Of The Wedding (1952) Montgomery Clift in From Here To Eternity (1953) Don Murray in A Hatful Of Rain (1957) Audrey Hepburn ...

Re: Really? You've NEVER seen that Classic Film?

I have never seen The Wages Of Fear (1953) , it is on the IMDB top 250 list and many consider it one of the greatest foreign language films.

I have seen the 1977 American remake Sorcerer which I did not like.
