G. Allen Johnson San Francisco Chronicle Personal insights aside, the highlights of “Made in England” are the exquisite, intoxicating images from the films themselves. Rated: 4/4 Aug 7, 2024 Full Review Amy Nicholson FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's like you're attending a seminar about them hosted by Martin Scorsese... If you're interested in that kind of lens into their work, then it is really fascinating. Aug 3, 2024 Full Review Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle Scorsese’s outsized presence in the documentary – its very framework built around his relationship to Powell and Pressburger – ends up jamming an immovable object between viewer and subject. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 2, 2024 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid This is a thorough and loving portrait, a mini-film school all in itself, and a must-see for anyone who already loves these films, or for anyone who is interested in learning more about what the cinema has to offer. Rated: 4/4 Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Ernesto Diezmartinez Letras Libres In this documentary Martin Scorsese analyzes the films of the great filmmaking duo Powell & Pressburger to connect them not only with his own work, but with his life itself. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/4 Aug 22, 2024 Full Review Jim Schembri jimschembri.com A fine, reflective documentary; old-school cineastes will love it.

Tati So interesting & well-done. Loved Scorsese’s commentary & insights how these two British filmmakers impacted his own film creations. Recommend seeing. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Ann Good film history. Good narration. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/14/24 Full Review alison g Absolutely stunning from start to finish! Although it's a documentary, it's one of those films where it's such a surprise to step out into reality at the end.... They were a very special team, and this film will probably make you want to investigate lots of their films... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews
