About seven and a half years ago, Esquire Magazine asked five film critics to nominate a young director to answer the question, "Who is the next Scorsese?" The director himself even offered up his own nomination. Here is an article that goes through the nominations to see how they hold up. I want add my own director to the list, something I mentioned here sometime ago, and that would be Craig Brewer. Nobody works better with music in todays films and nobody is making films that are set in a specific place like Brewer. He is doing for Tennessee what Scorsese did for New York.
