When Martin Scorsese talks film history, you know you’re in for a treat. In Made in England: The Films of Powell and Pressburger, he personally and passionately journeys through the lasting grandeur of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s work. "Certain films you simply run all the time and you live with them. As you grow older, they grow deeper."
It's almost a genre in itself: documentaries in which Martin Scorsese gratefully takes you by the hand for a wonderful journey through film history. He already inspired cinephiles worldwide with A Personal Journey with Martin Scorsese Through American Movies and My Voyage to Italy, and he does it again with Made in England: The Films of Powell and Pressburger, a film that makes us fall in love (all over again) with the virtuoso cinema of British duo Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. Together as "The Archers", they shot for the stars with grandiose films such as Black Narcissus and The Red Shoes. Scorsese showcases the legacy of their independent partnership and shares, among many other things, his favourite scene of all time. How films can age like fine wine, can get richer each day, is deeply felt in this passionate tribute to life, love and art.
