Mainland, and Hong Kong give the lie (at least for me) to your contention.
Asia seems to be the hotspot. And... the best director on these shores, Ang Lee, is of Chinese descent.
Outside of a few Mexican and Brazilian directors I'd say the genius of film has swung there.
I'd throw Tarantino in but he's a zombie...
