[george kaplan]

HOWARD HAWKS - (His Girl Friday) - two flawed films in my opinion, which both could have been so much better, but I think Lynch failed by a bigger margin.

GEORGE LUCAS - (Star Wars)

GEORGE ROY HILL - (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) - very tough choice

ALFRED HITCHCOCK - (Rear Window) - tough draw for Leone
