Dedication to Directors?

[frozentheory]

I know I (and I'm sure many others) enjoyed Summer Under the Stars very much as it gave me an inside view of many legends of the screen. Now what I feel would make a good month special since stars and cinematographers have been done, what about the great directors of all-time? Since I am new here, I do not know if this has already been done and if is planned to be done, but I simply feel as though it would be interesting to see mini-specials of different directors to guide viewers an appreciation for the diverse set of directors during the classic era.

 

I'm sure I'll get a bit of heat for suggesting seeing some of the same films over and over, but it is always interesting to know who guided those great stars.

I'm kinda "new" here myself, FT, but I think TCM has done at least 1-day features of the works of various directors from the Classic Era. Your idea of getting "mini-specials" (would these be like documentaries?) would interest me, too. Lately some of us here have named several important actresses and actors we would like to see TCM to do a good documentary on, or a live interview with that haven't been done yet. So few are still alive! Don't worry about being bombarded, but do be prepared for some lively discussion in this thread (smile).
