Emeric Pressburger by Kevin Macdonald

This biography casts light on one half of the partnership that gave the world "The Red Shoes", "Colonel Blimp" and "The Tales of Hoffman". Written by Pressburger's grandson, the book includes material from Pressburger's diaries and attempts to show what he brought to the Powell-Pressburger films.
