Top 5 Directors Michelle Pfeiffer Should Work With Next

 

 

5. David Fincher

I would love to see her in a slick, classy, and edgy thriller that doesn’t involve ghosts. It would be refreshing to see Pfeiffer in a Seven-Fight Club kind of movie.  

 

4. Cameron Crowe

She seems to really like doing romantic comedies. And I think if that’s what she wants Cameron Crowe is her man. He makes appealing, mainstream movies that are smart and original.   

 

3. Steven Spielberg

She’s friends with the Spielberg’s and I wonder why they still haven’t decided to do a movie together. All of his films in the last few years were all critically acclaimed films. Plus every film of Spielberg is so different from each other, so it means that if Pfeiffer do a Spielberg movie, it would be a role so different from what she’s currently getting. And I just like the sound of Pfeiffer in a Spielberg movie.    

 

2. Robert Altman

I would’ve chosen this as the #1 director I want her to work with next. But since his movies are mostly big ensemble kind of movies, so definitely if it happens Pfeiffer would have to share screen time with a great number of actors. And she’s been absent in the screen for years and I would like her to do a lead role. I felt really bad that she turned down “A Prairie in the House”. Let’s just hope “I Could Never be Your Woman” is worth it.  

 

1. Sidney Lumet

One of the remaining truly great directors of our time. Look at his resume Twelve Angry Men, The Verdict, Murder on the Orient Express, Fail Safe, Dog Day Afternoon etc. These are great movies. And I hope in the future a Michelle Pfeiffer movie would be included in that list. And I hope it’s going to be a movie that would be reminiscent of Paul Newman in The Verdict. A character study film that is almost sparse in dialogue but rich in nuances and quiet acting.
