The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is slated to close the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday night and there are several reasons why it may end up being director Terry Gilliam's best movie: Not only does it promise a fantastical and unusual story filled with surreal surprises -- but it is also graced with Heath Ledger's last performance, as well as those by Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell, and Jude Law. After its December release in theaters, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is sure to rank high amongst Gilliam's most well-known works --Time Bandits, Brazil, The Fisher King, 12 Monkeys and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas -- to name a few.

In the meantime, what's Terry Gilliam's best movie so far? 

Martin Scorsese's been shooting movies since 1959. Indeed, hardly a year has gone by without him making a new masterpiece. Since the director is currently in the limelight again for his film restoration efforts at Cannes, now seems as good a time as any to weigh in on which of his many great pics is the best of the best. Did he peak with Goodfellas? Is The Departed proof he only gets better every time? Let us know what you think.

Danny Boyle has consistently taken independent movies that might have gotten swept under the rug and made them (and their actors) into veritable superstars. At AFI Dallas, an entire panel discussion was devoted to asking what Slumdog Millionaire's success means for independent filmmakers as they decide the future of their projects.

Boyle started out with Shallow Grave in 1994, and then moved straight to Trainspotting, which made waves for its graphic depiction of drug abuse and turned Ewan McGregor an actor to watch. Since then, Boyle's been recognized for jumping genres with zombie movie 28 Days Later, scifi epic Sunshine, and most recently, Oscar darling Slumdog to his credit. Which movie is his best?

Joel and Ethan Coen see most of their movies together from start to finish as writers, directors and editors. Sometimes the brothers switch their titles around (or the order of their billing) but it's always understood that a Coen Brothers film is a joint effort.

Blood Simple put them on the map in 1984 and No Country for Old Men secured their place there for eternity, earning the duo Oscars for directing, screenwriting and best picture in 2007. But long time fans will be able to rattle off a list of beloved titles, including Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, and O Brother, Where Art Thou; they've tackled Homeric epics, westerns, and screwball comedies. Next up is Burn After Reading which premieres tonight at the Toronto Film Festival, but don't worry if you're not in attendance. The political thriller arrives stateside Friday, Sept. 12.

Noir, screwball or western? What's your favorite Coen brothers movie?

Clint Eastwood turns 78 at the end of this month, but he doesn't seem to be slowing down at all. His most recent directorial effort, Changeling, is among the 22 features in competition at the Cannes Film Festival and will screen there on May 20. The prolific director also has two films in pre-production: The Human Factor and Gran Torino -- he'll also star in the latter.

Changeling, is based partly on the true story of a young boy abducted from his home in Prohibition-era Los Angeles. Rumor has it, Eastwood has a good shot at the Palme d'Or since his good friend Sean Penn is the Cannes Jury President. Penn scoffs, but he did win the Best Actor Oscar for Mystic River (2003). But even if he doesn't snag the big prize, Eastwood should enjoy his time at Cannes. As part of the celebration of Warner Bros 85th anniversary, he's personally presenting a public screening of a restored version of Dirty Harry.

There's no phrase at a film festival that provokes a flurry of debate quite like "a new film by Woody Allen." His latest, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, debuts at Cannes, but for the most part, people are talking about that kiss between Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz, not Woody himself.

Most everyone has an opinion as to whether the 73-year-old filmmaker has already peaked. (The consensus frankly is yes.) Heck, in 2006 at the Match Point premiere, the director himself referred to his work as "mediocre." At the time, the critics seemed to agree: From 1998 to 2006, his movies were completely unrecognized for all major awards (not that he'd show up for the ceremony).

But before you dismiss him as a man past his prime, let's reconsider some of his initially dismissed films like Celebrity and Everybody Says I Love You. Maybe these misses aren't really misses but simply movies ahead of their time. Everyone loves Annie Hall and Crimes and Misdemeanors but what's your favorite underrated Woody Allen flick?
