Cue up Louis Armstrong's "St. James Infirmary."
Kiarostami literally cast Ershadi in the middle of traffic to star in Taste of Cherry, and it's one of the great performances in cinema history. very sad news.

I thought about this for as long as it took to type, with maybe a slight pause before Wye Oak because pop-adjacent woman singer/songwriter is a big category of my taste.

Not an original answer, but New Hollywood-era horror has certainly supplanted the contemporarily-acknowledged masterpieces of New Hollywood in overall esteem and canonical centrality. As for those who've fallen off, pretty much all of the '90s music video directors that aren't Glazer?
throwing this prompt from Twitter in here. what examples you got?
