Short filmTranscript
00:00Some of the very first moving images that I can remember seeing are from Michael Powell
00:08and Emmerich Pressburger.
00:10I have never met a person who not only understood what I was driving at, but guessed already
00:17half of it before I said it.
00:22They were like experimental filmmakers working within the system.
00:26Do we have a go at each other?
00:28Not really.
00:29In a few hours time, he sees that I was right.
00:37They want to go beyond everyday experiences and communicate what is deep and mysterious
00:42in our lives.
00:43I love you, June.
00:44You're life and I'm leaving you.
00:45You say that because you love her.
00:46I don't love anyone.
00:47And it's something that no other art form can do.
00:56It's pure film.
00:57Everybody happy?
00:58They wanted to hang on to their independence and they suffered because of it.
01:03Why do you think it was so important for you to show somebody dying for their art?
01:08I think because I would do it myself.
01:12And I find it extraordinary that I knew Michael Powell.
01:15He was not only a support, but a guide and that always leads back to those films he made
01:21with Emmerich.
01:22And I was just rejoicing that I was going to work with somebody like this.
01:28What they offer is a vision of love, of longing and loss, hope and expectation of wonder.
01:40I've watched these movies so many times, they become part of my life and a reminder of what
01:50life and art are all about.
