Summary: A Transatlantic Valentine
Comment: This is a very good book on a very interesting and good movie. Christie explores the origins of "A Matter of Life and Death," discusses its attitudes toward time and how the film uses color. I especially liked his examination of the film's historical context, namely how although it was inspired by WWII issues, it was still relevant when it came out in the early years of the Cold War. (Christie quotes a Soviet review of the movie which is quite interesting.)

This book is strongly recommended for those who love the movies of Powell and Pressburger.
