"Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's A Matter of Life and Death is an evocation of English history and the wartime experience. Ian Christie shows how the film drew on many sources and traditions to create a unique form of modern masque, treating contemporary issues with witty allegory and enormous visual imagination."--BOOK JACKET.
