As I looked at this wonderful Time gallery of 10 actor-director pairs that worked the celluloid magic, I was hoping to see Satyajit Ray and Soumitra Chatterji or Ray and Madhabi Mukherjee featuring in this. But Time has skipped them. They have also missed another great pair of Federico Fellini and Marcelo Mastrioanni.
