Since no one else mentioned him, I'll go with Akira Kurosawa this time. Rashomon is a great watch on the short side and my personal favourite, based on a short story by Akutagawa. The most enjoyable part of the movie to me is the obvious - different ways the characters twist their retelling of the crime, which do a great job of telling you what kind of person the speaker is.
In addition, I'd bet most people if not have watched it, have atleast heard of Seven Samurai. If not, surely have seen something inspired by the movie.

I'm really excited for the Kana-Akane bout... both in romance and on stage. Also Kana just doing a 180 after hearing Aqua describe his relationship with Akane as "just work" is priceless. Now I can finally binge the manga freely... I'm ready to get disappointed again, Mr. Akasaka.
