A Matter of Life and Death is a fantasy-romance film directed, produced, and written by the filmmaker duo of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger in 1946. Nicknamed The Archers (as that is what their production company was called), these two combined minds, along with their respective teams, churned out 24 films over a span of 33 years (between 1939 and 1972). Pressburger usually handled the scripts and the production, while Powell did most of the directing.
