Hitchcock had a huge influence on the way films were made- and so on other directors. From that perspective he's greater (or at least more important ) than Powell.
But I'd trade Vertigo for Black Narcissus any day. I admire Hitch, but I love Powell.
P.S. My favourite British movie is A Canterbury Tale.
