Never get to read it?

Craner wrote an essay about Powell and Pressburger which concludes that this was Britain "as we wish She still was".

Nothing to contradict this now. Its on the historical record.

 

[craner]

To be fair to @Corpsey he actually proofread a paragraph of it, pointed out all the mistakes and then didn't read any more of it.

Which was fair enough, as it turned out.

@craner do you have anyone in mind for greatest british filmmaker(s)? Are P&P contenders for you?

 

[Clinamenic]

Curious also how you feel about Terence Davies.

Nobody has heard of Terry Davis we dont know who he is

He was arguably the greatest living british filmmaker up until his death a couple months ago. I've seen six of his films now, a few of which are among my favorites and among the best I've seen.

Craner's described the Vaughn - Ritchie partnership as Powell and Pressburger for the new Millennium.

If only Powell had lived to see his legacy

Power couple.

 

[craner]

To be fair, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword is one of the most astounding films I've ever seen

The next day I thought I'd dreamt it, I had to check it was real.
