Kurosawa is my favorite, though all of these guys are great.

Crimson Ace

I believe that Kurosawa is the greatest Director that's ever lived. I also think that Seven Samurai (1954) is the greatest film ever made. With that said, I fully recognize that delving into Kurosawa's catalogue tends to resonate more deeply with context and discussion. So for that reason, I voted for Martin Scorsese. His films can be dissected if so chosen, but they're also more easily digestible at face value. Just my 5 cents (2 cents is no longer a viable idiom since pennies were forsaken... lol). Here's my personal ranking of all 26 Scorsese films... https://letterboxd.com/thecrimsonace/list/director-scorsese-martin/
