I can't believe how few threads there are on this board. I haven't seen much, but I am curious how people rate his work.

I'll rattle a Top 10 just off the top of my head:

1. The Long Goodbye
2. McCabe & Mrs. Miller
3. Nashville
4. MASH
5. 3 Women
6. The Player
7. Brewster McCloud
8. Thieves Like Us
9. Images
10. Short Cuts, California Split, or maybe Popeye
    Oh, and those are all 10s in my book.
    A truly spectacular body of work, but definitely not for all tastes. And there used to be many more topics on the board, a lot have been deleted.

It's interesting that he provokes such a wide variety of reactions, sometimes even with the same film.
Why were the topics deleted?
You also know that we need close collaboration from the rabbits!

Nothing controversial, probably just conservation of space. I notice that with a lot of directors or films that aren't as, say, popular - they've gone from having 4-5 pages of topics to 1 or 2. After a certain time period inactive threads are probably deleted. I don't know, I'm too lazy to see if there are actual imdb regs about that. But indeed, Altman is one of the most divisive filmmakers I've come across. Love, hate and everything in between - even among fans.

I have seen most of Altman's work from the 60's onward, and I'd put McCabe & Mrs Miller firm;y at the top, with MASH, Long Goodbye, and Nashville following. In that 3-4 year period he was masterful

It has been a long time! I've seen Short Cuts since last time I posted here, very good film.
The Dude abides. I don't know about you but I take comfort in that.

M5b4y favorite director.
McCabe and Long Goodbye are two of my all-timers.
Buffalo Bill is criminally underrated.
