10 Best Arthouse Movie Directors, Ranked

Everyone loves a good crowd-pleasing blockbuster, but arthouse cinema is absolutely crucial as well, in lots of different ways. It's a kind of smaller-scale cinema, often independent of the major studio system, driven by a director's personal artistic vision. It's able to much more freely delve into stories, themes, and characters that mainstream film doesn't often approach, as well as pushing the boundaries of the medium.

Cronenberg is always unafraid to get experimental, a little bit crazy, and very graphic. Horror fans who like movies that perfectly blend fear and gore with highly intelligent concepts and writing are guaranteed to love Cronenberg, whose style has evolved beautifully over the years. Nowadays, he may not be as prolific as he was in the past; but he's still consistently delivering subversive arthouse work that shakes viewers to their core.

The term "structure" has never been in Godard's vocabulary. Visually inventive and playfully edited, films like the brilliant Pierrot Le Fou and the iconic Breathless define his distinct style. Even having had a few missteps over the course of his career, Godard has been crucial to film's development as an art form.

A master of poetic cinema, Bergman left a body of work that never fails to have an incredibly punchy emotional effect on viewers. His narratives, populated by some fascinating characters, are always gripping explorations of some of the deepest parts of the human condition. What makes those narratives really pop, though, is Bergman's distinct visual style. His compositions are always imbued with profound meaning, and his measured use of surrealism in many of his films is masterful.
