Made in England: The Films of Powell and Pressburger is a 2024 British documentary film directed by David Hinton. Martin Scorsese narrates the film, as he reflects on the influence of filmmakers Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger , whose decades-long collaboration led to a series of classics that made the duo a crucial part of British cinema.
