The Life And Death Of Colonel Blimp (1943) / A Matter Of Life And Death (1946) / Jassy (1947) / Blanche Fury (1948) / Twelve O'Clock High (1949) / The Trap (1966) / Cast A Dark Shadow (1955)
The Life And Death Of Colonel Blimp (1943) A veteran accountant at Rank Org bitterly told me that no Archers movie made a profit and wasted so much money. We should be thankful the creatives allowed Powell & Pressburger to make such a string of classics, including this thrilling, comic and moving epic.

The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) A finely crafted story of revenge, family and redemption, simply but evocatively shot and balanced with a sense of humour. Savage bursts of violence are likewise contrasted with moments of sensitivity as characters reveal depth and humanity. An enduring classic.

How Green Was My Valley (1941) Artistry suffuses every frame of Ford's expertly realized story of hope and loss (personal and community) in a Welsh mining community. Sentimental in the best sense, the collective talent in front and behind camera makes for supreme entertainment.

Madonna Of The Seven Moons (1945) Suffused with religious imagery, a swirling, heady brew of costume melodrama, aided by a marvelous Hans May score. Phyllis Calvert, Stewart Granger and Patricia Roc float amid the lush silver and black visuals.
