The Powell & Pressburger Pages Dedicated to the work of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger and all the other people, both actors and technicians who helped them make those wonderful films. A lot of the documents have been sent to me or have come from other web sites. The name of the web site is given where known. If I have unintentionally included an image or document that is copyrighted or that I shouldn't have done then please email me and I'll remove it. I make no money from this site, it's purely for the love of the films. [Any comments are by me (Steve Crook) and other members of the email list]

     A British four-reeler, "The Rasp," will also be shown [as a second feature to "The Yellow Passport"]. "The Rasp" was directed by Michael Powell, who also directed "Two Crowded Hours." It is an ingenious murder mystery, in which a journalist saves an innocent man from conviction at the hands of the police.

     The cast includes many famous stage-names, among whom are C.M. Hallard, Thomas Weguelin, Phyllis Loring and James Raglan.
