We fans always wish that every director can make films in the speed of Woody Allen,but unfortunately some of them make films in the speed of Stanley Kubrick.Among the directors I’m gonna mention below,some of them really kept us waiting for a looong time,like Wong-Karwai(5 years),Paul Thomas Anderson(5 years),Leos Carax(13 years),and some of them just impressed us with their latest work last year,like Woody Allen,David Cronenberg and Terrence Malick.Most of these directors’ new works will be Cannes Festival potential contender,so it will be another great competition this year.Let’s have a look at what directors and films we can expect in the next few months.
