Monuments Men: Cinematic Graves

In addition to being a film geek, I am also a comic book geek. As such, I follow comic book writer Matt Fraction's Tumblr. Recently he posted a photo of filmmaker Chris Marker's adorable grave and it started me down a Google hole of looking up the graves of famous filmmakers. Many were rather plain, others were quite opulent. Here are the Top-5 that I came across in my searching. It might cost a pretty penny, but I hope some day to visit all of these sacred cinematic shrines. Did I leave out any important ones?

Chris Marker

Billy Wilder

Akira Kurosawa

Krzysztof Kieślowski

Federico Fellini
