Powell & Pressburger Films
"As Britain’s most famous producing-directing team, Powell and Pressburger divided critical opinion between those who demanded social realism within cinema and those who supported an auteurist vision. With the rise of auteur theory in journals such as the UK-based Movie, the work of Powell and Pressburger received a more positive critical reevaluation. At the box office, the duo’s fantastical, mystical tales enjoyed great success… In 1943 they established their own production company called the Archers, for which they made a succession of popular and significant films." - Scott Henderson, Schirmer Encyclopedia of Film
