Martin Scorsese's first encounter with the films of Powell and Pressburger came as a child, sitting in front of the family television. In this documentary, Scorsese delves into his lifelong love affair with their cinematic creations, including masterpieces like 'The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp,' 'Black Narcissus,' 'The Red Shoes,' and 'The Tales of Hoffmann.' Drawing on a wealth of archive material, Scorsese explores the extraordinary collaboration between the Englishman Michael Powell and the Hungarian Emeric Pressburger. The duo thrived amidst the adversity of World War II but ultimately faced challenges within the film industry of the 1950s.
