- Top 5 Film/TV discussion: (Theme from PARKS AND RECREATION)

An enormous fleet of merciless and well-armed Extra-Terrestrials attack and swiftly take over Earth. You are chosen by the Aliens to act as arbiter of what artefacts of cinema remain, and are commanded to pick 5 Film Directors of any gender and 1 film from their back-catalogue. Every other Film Director will be assigned a new profession and every film - with the exception of those chosen - will be erased from existence.

Which 5 Film Directors do you choose to carry on, and which 1 film of theirs gets saved?
