## Resource

LexG with some mini "lightning rounds" on a few formative faves, from David Cronenberg to Kathryn Bigelow to Walter Hill, with a few shorter riffs on Paul Verhoeven, Peter Hyams, and John Badham. Not meant to be comprehensive or scholarly, just freeform riffing about some favorite filmmakers, in what might become an ongoing occasional series or segment.
