Vikram Singh – Cinephilia

I am not a great movies watcher but thanks to my good friends and the good god that
I have watched some really great cinema over the coarse of last 28 years :). I have
added only the names of the directors in the credits of all these great works. I know
its not justified for the rest of artists, designers, musicians etc. who contributed in
bringing these magics on screen. So, I urge you all to please release my soul from
this great burden by going through the complete list of credits :). -- Cheers
