In this new documentary, filmmaker Martin Scorsese
celebrates his lifelong love affair with Powell and
Pressburger movies, including The Life and Death of
Colonel Blimp, Black Narcissus, The Red Shoes, and
The Tales of Hoffmann. Scorsese first encountered the
duo’s films on TV when he was a child. Drawing on a
rich array of archive material, Scorsese explores the
collaboration between Powell and Pressburger, who
thrived during World War II, and describes how deeply
their films have influenced his own work.
