I've got to throw James Foley into the mix here....
While not as prolific as some of the others mentioned already he has been able to make a couple of landmark (in my opinion anyway...) films in the midst of an otherwise very ordinary career.
Landmark (in my opinion anyway...)
Glengarry Glen Ross- I know that you can make the argument that "it's a Mamet script... just turn the camera on and let the actors fly." Hmmm... have you seen The Edge?
At Close Range- Surely the most underrated film of the 80's. Walken has never matched this level of charisma, taking the film away from Mr. Penn.
And besides... Tracey Walter's in it.
After Dark My Sweet- Okay. Not really a landmark... but it's worth a drive-by...
Less Than Landmark
Who's That Girl- ...
The Chamber- John Grisham sucks. I'm sorry. But it's true. Okay. I'm not sorry. (but it's still true)
Fear- Hey look! Marky Mark can act! Well... sort of.
The Corruptor- See above.
