I must concede a tie here,the two greatest directors of all time crafted what is called movie magic,in both extremes,one being Super 70mm colour,and the other,black & white,there are not enough objects to describe the mesmerizing effect of these two great classics,and by today’s standards,i note that most of the modern directors attempt to emulate their fantastic work,some come a bit close,e.g.Spielberg,Scorcese and possibly a newbie called Christopher Nolan,and a pinch of Curtis Hanson,most of today’s films rely far too much on special effects,i noted some comments on the value of family on a comment from the Godfather trilogy,oh my god,nice families,Lean & Wyler are at the top with a close third going to Stanley Kubrick
