An Introduction Michael Powell generally considered to be he best director British cinema has ever known. His work from the 40s and 50s evoke a particular brand of stoic Britishness that is still stirring half a century on. The imagination and immense charm behind many of his greatest films did not preclude a darker side, however - Peeping Tom, whose controversy ended his career in Britain, is one of the greatest horror films of the last 50 years.
