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]

    Produced by Jerry Jackson and directed by Michael Powell for Westminster Films, the plot of "C.O.D." presents a tensely-told story of the adventures of a young gentleman down on his luck who meets adventure for the first time. He sees a maid hide the key of the area door under the mat. Peter lets himself into the house, and he finds himself confronted by a beautiful girl. The first of his surprises is the request to dispose of the dead body of a man. There are a dozen or so more of even more thrilling adventures to go through before the climax. The cast includes Arthur Stratton, Sybil Grove, Garry Marsh, Hope Davey, Bruce Belfrage, Roland Culver, Cecil Ramage, and Peter Gawthorpe.
