Brian De Palma, I love the way he looks an event and can show you how that looks to different people in the same room, and I love his combined use of montage and mies-un-scene, even in blockbusters like Mission Impossible where you are looking at the same room through all the "spys" hidden cameras on the computer screen, and even Snake Eyes although not a very good story, he still manages to make it visually interesting by showing one boxing match / murder, from different characters point of view fantasticaly, but best of all it has to be Carrie the build up to her being covered in pigs blood is great and split screen mayhem, you gotta give him his due he can show you everybody sees everything differently even if they are in the same place at the same time

Stanley Kubrik, it has to be because of the sheer volume, diversity, and quality of his output!
His 'greatest movie' is a really tough one, because there are so many that I like in so many different ways, but I think the towering achievement is 2001.
This is a film stuffed full of big ideas.
The ideas are translated into excellent screen-play and stunning visuals.
The narrative structure is strong, sweeping, and powerful
enough to be left virtually totally open-ended.
The acting is so good and well controlled that you do not particularly notice the actors because you are swept up in what is going on.
HAL! What a character! Is he the first computer to 'die' on-screen? Or the first computer to murder?

Due to the personal nature of art there can be no definitive answer to your question, however I do believe a shortlist can be created consisting of Martin Scorsese, Alfred Hitchcock and Billy Wilder amongst other greats.
For me, the answer is Martin Scorsese, a director, who despite misconceptions is able to make films in a variety of genres.
And although Goodfellas (1990) is a close second his best film has to be Raging Bull (1980)
