Let's list some Old Film Directors who are still alive1

HER take on Marvel i can imagine

Alain Tanner, 89.

Michael Snow will be 91 next month. He introduced Wavelength at MoMA yesterday.

Happy 90th Birthday to Carlos Saura!

Here's an IMDB list that seems to be up-to-date (except for Lina Wertmüller):

https://www.imdb.com/list/ls000963382/

Oldest living director not mentioned in this thread: Bert I. Gordon, 99
Oldest living director already mentioned in this thread: Peter Brook, 96
Mentioned by me in another thread: Ruy Guerra, 90
Probably should not have been mentioned: Theo Angelopoulos, 72 at the time (and died at 76)

Happy 90th Birthday to Richard Lester!

(Also raise a glass to John Boorman, who turned 89 yesterday!)

Thanks! Don't forget about The Running Jumping Richard Lester Thread
(Note: that thread has a Jesse Garon Presley twin for some reason)

I want to think Lester and Boorman partied together, but Boorman lives in Ireland and Lester in England presumably

Costa-Gavras, 88

Inspired by a reference to a 2019 film of his.

Alejandro Jodorowsky is 93 today. ¡Feliz cumpleaños, señor!

Kenneth Anger recently turned 95. Is anyone else living who made films in the 40s?

Also if he was really in A Midsummer Night's Dream (disputed) he's one of the few people alive who were in films in the 1930s. 104-year-old Marsha Hunt would be another in that small group.

Is anyone else living who made films in the 40s?

If you allow a loose interpretation of "made" and "films", according to the IMDB link above, both Peter Brook and Mel Brooks got their first credits as writers for TV in 1949.

I was thinking more first directing credit.
