Description
Michael Powell: A Life in Cinema. This comprehensive biography examines Michael Powell's remarkable career as a film director, from his early days as a 'Grip' and stills photographer to his own directorial efforts and partnership with Emeric Pressburger. The book analyses 23 films made by Powell in just five years, providing a detailed look at his work. Powell's partnership with Pressburger came to an end in the mid-1950s, but he continued to produce acclaimed films, including The Tales of Hoffmann and The Battle of the River Plate. This book also explores Powell's lesser-known work in television and theatre, as well as the groundbreaking use of music in his films. With exclusive interviews and comments from those who worked with him, this book offers a fully rounded assessment of Michael Powell's extraordinary career, rediscovered by successive generations of cinema enthusiasts.
