Director Trademarks

pere-25366
These talented auteurs all exhibit a near instantly recognizable style in their films - so recognizable in fact, that it doesn't take their viewers long to know whose film they are watching upon beginning. This could mean recurring themes, special effects or a general tone with which we've come to associate these directors.

Rather than asking which director is your favorite, which of these director's trademarks do you find MOST RECOGNIZABLE?
