Featured review
Documentary charting the film careers of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. What gives this documentary a special lift, greater insight and understanding is that it is delivered by Martin Scorsese supported by some strong back up archive footage from Powell. The touching thing here is that he and Powell eventually became good friends and Scorsese is not shy in telling us how much Powell brightened up his life and supported him when things weren't so good.
The bulk of the documentary though is an insight into the making of the films these guys produced largely in the thirties and forties by someone who clearly knows his way around a camera, a story and the cinema. His views are fascinating as he explains key scenes and how much they influenced scenes he crafted for his productions. It is very clear that he adores these films and holds them in the highest esteem, he has seen them all many times and definitely knows his stuff. A real lesson then for anyone interested in cinema and its techniques - you just want to go out and watch them again.
