Michael Powell Libri
Michael Powell fu un appassionato di cinema per tutta la vita, le cui prime esperienze in Inghilterra e nel sud della Francia modellarono la sua visione artistica. In collaborazione con Emeric Pressburger sotto l'insegna de "The Archers", crearono una serie di film influenti che spesso esploravano destini umani complessi e spettacoli visivi. L'impresa solista di Powell suscitò controversie, ma fu successivamente riscoperta e celebrata per la sua audace visione. La sua opera è caratterizzata sia dalla classica galanteria inglese che da una sensibilità globale, rendendolo una figura unica nel cinema mondiale.
