The Powell & Pressburger Images 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 images 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.

Without the fanfares normally associated with a big première of a Rank film at the Odeon, Leicester Square. It's nice that J. Arthur did attend, after having threatened to not provide the completion funding and having walked out of the preview without saying a word to Emeric.
