Live Poll: Lesser-Known Author and Auteur Collaborations

Added. 

@Peter_pbn

"Collaboration" is the word that IMDB uses for their Advanced Search Engine. But, I'm open to suggestions if you know a more appropriate word.

Since they are lesser known films, probably voters have not watched enough of them to vote for a favorite. Maybe which one interest you the most or would you like to watch or something in that tone may be a better question?

Maybe. However, the last time two times that I tried it, I have not gotten the impression that it influenced the results of the poll.

Cate Blanchett's Favorite Hope Films (261 votes) Winner: Spirited Away

Kenneth Anger's Short Films (76 votes) Winner: Lucifer Rising

Got it.

In that case maybe: Satyajit Ray and Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay.

They have five films, and I think at least 2 are among the greatest classical Indian films

Feature Film/TV Episode/Video/TV Movie/TV Special/TV Mini-Series/Documentary/Video Game/Short Film, with Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay, Satyajit Ray (Sorted by Popularity Ascending) - IMDb

This is going to be a fun to research poll.

Akira Kurosawa and Shûgorô Yamamoto, seven films

Kenji Mizoguchi and Matsutaro Kawaguchi, sixteen films

Youssef Chahine and Abderrahman Charkawi, 3 films

Sergiu Nicolaescu and Titus Popovici, 8 films

Satyajit Ray and Sunit Gangopadhyay, 2 films

Thank you, I will add those tomorrow.

Also FYC:

Zoltán Fábri and István Örkény, 2 films

Edvin Laine and Väinö Linna, 7 films

Robert Bresson and George Bernanos, 2 films

Vittorio de Sica and Alberto Moravia, 5 films

Jirí Menzel and Bohumil Habral, 8 films

Jacques Rivette and Honoré de Balzac, 4 films

Yves Robert and Marcel Pagnon, 2 films

Jéan Renoir and Emile Zola, 2 films

I added all the collaborations that you suggested, but I'm not sure to keep:

Sergiu Nicolaescu and Titus Popovici

Youssef Chahine and Abderrahman Charkawi

Because Popovici and Charkawi are screenwriters before being authors.

Also, I added:

Jean Delannoy and Georges Simenon

1.Maigret Lays a Trap (1958)

2. Maigret and the St. Fiacre Case (1959)

3. The Baron of the Locks (1960)

Robert Bresson and Fyodor Dostoevsky

1. A Gentle Woman (1969)

2. Four Nights of a Dreamer (1971)

Grigoriy Kozintsev, Boris Pasternak and William Shakespeare

1. Hamlet (1964)

2. King Lear (1970)

I'm unfamiliar with the work of both of them and found them only while investigating, but if they are indeed mostly screenwriters they probably aren't what you meant.

@Tsarstepan

One: Corrected

Two:  It is not about the popularity of the author it is about the popularity of the collaboration/set of adaptations. And, the collaborations Welles/Shakespeare and Olivier/Shakespeare aren't that popular according to IMDb and Letterboxd. 

Three:

Peter suggested something similar. I'm considering it strongly.

Yes, this is what I meant too. A rewrite along the lines Tsar suggests may be the best option.

Tsarstepan's text doesn't work for the "Grigoriy Kozintsev, Boris Pasternak and William Shakespeare" collaboration.

And, my knowledge of English fails to find an alternative.

Looks fine.

Soon, I'm gonna make a list of titles that appear more than once in my polls.
