Acclaimed director Martin Scorsese introduces the BBC’s much-anticipated season of films by the legendary team of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. Scorsese reveals why they resonate so strongly with him and are on his recommended list of essential viewing for any fan of cinema . The season features I Know Where I’m Going, The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp, The Red Shoes and A Matter of Life and Death - all seemingly a world away from what most movie-goers would associate with the director of Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas . But Powell and Pressburger rank amongst the biggest influences on Scorsese’s career, and here, he kicks off the season with a special explanation of why it’s so important for him to celebrate their work.
