Around the turn of the 21st Century, a group of directors emerged who seemed destined to take the place of the American New Wave directors of the 1970's. This new group, led by such filmmakers as P.T. Anderson, Wes Anderson, David Fincher, Chris Nolan, Darren Aronofsky, the Wachowskis, David O. Russell, Todd Haynes, the Jonze/Gondry/Kaufman nexus, Kim Pierce, Alexander Payne and Sofia Coppola, to name a few, were poised to stake their claim. And in the last two decades...well, it has not exactly worked out as hoped. Join our intrepid trio as we explore the careers of some of these gifted directors and discuss what went right and what went a bit awry.
