The Powell & Pressburger Pages

Dedicated to the work of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger and all the other people, both actors and technicians who helped them make those wonderful films.

A lot of the documents have been sent to me or have come from other web sites. The name of the web site is given where known. If I have unintentionally included an image or document that is copyrighted or that I shouldn't have done then please email me and I'll remove it.

I make no money from this site, it's purely for the love of the films.

The Brown Wallet (1936)

After finding £200, a bankrupt publisher is accused of killing a rich, old aunt. Justice prevails and his name is cleared by the film's end. One of many such small films that director Powell worked on before achieving some success with bigger projects.
