Powell and Pressburger on DVD in order

	The Edge Of The World [1938] [DVD] Buy new: £12.38 Powell's first post 'quota-quickie' feature. A top notch DVD from the bfi. Includes the doc: Return to the Edge of the World (1978), Powell's last film
	The Lion Has Wings [DVD] [1939] Buy used from: £49.90 The first Brit propaganda of WW2. Not supposed to be entirely satisfying, and only partially directed by Powell
	Contraband [DVD] [1940] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] Buy used from: £23.71 Region 1 only. Neither this or excellent The Spy In Black (1939) are available on region 2 dvd. would make a top double-pack
	Thief Of Bagdad [DVD] Buy new: £6.88 / Used from: £5.99 Powell directed several sequences in this gaudy and brilliant epic. The credit for which should go to producer Alexander Korda
	49th Parallel [DVD] [1941] Buy used from: £2.78
	One Of Our Aircraft Is Missing [DVD] [1941] Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.00
	The Life And Death Of Colonel Blimp [DVD] [1943] Buy new: £10.88 / Used from: £1.99 Emeric Pressburger's favourite and a new transfer may be forthcoming
	A Canterbury Tale [DVD] [1944] Buy new: £2.98 / Used from: £1.70 The case may look shoddy but the DVD-transfer quality is fine
	I Know Where I'm Going [DVD] [1945] Buy new: £3.88 / Used from: £2.50 My favourite (at the moment) again, could do with a better sleeve
	A Matter Of Life And Death [DVD] [1946] Buy new: £8.68 / Used from: £5.00 Michael Powell's favourite
	Black Narcissus [1946] [DVD] [1998] Buy new: £8.88 / Used from: £2.99 A terrific dvd transfer
	The Red Shoes - Plus Documentary [DVD] [1948] Buy used from: £4.99 Hopefully one day this will be remastered to the standard of Black Narcissus, rumoured to be remastered for dvd soon
	The Small Back Room [DVD] [1949] Buy used from: £9.95 No Elusive Pimpernel (1950) on dvd as of yet, when when when?
	Gone To Earth [1950] [DVD] Buy used from: £35.00
	Tales Of Hoffmann [DVD] [1951] Buy new: £5.98 No Oh.. Rosalinda!! (1955). It is doubtful that Pressburgers Twice Upon a Time (1953) will see a release in the near future
	The Battle Of The River Plate (Digitally Remastered Edition) [DVD] [1956] Buy new: £4.88 / Used from: £2.24 Warning! bad and misleading cover art! This isn't a run-of-the-mill brit war flick
	Ill Met By Moonlight [DVD] [1957] Buy new: £3.28 / Used from: £1.20 Amazon reviewers certainly like this inspite of P&P's contempt for it! Powell's Honeymoon (1959) and Pressburger's Miracle in Soho (1958) are not available
	Peeping Tom - Special Edition [DVD] [1959] Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £4.49 Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant. No Queens Guards (1961) or They're A Wierd Mob (on a stand alone dvd) (1966) available though...
	Espionage: Michael Powell [DVD] Espionage: The Frantic Rebel, Never Turn Your Back On A Friend, and A Free Agent (1963-64) - a trio of Powells TV work in his mid 60s film drought - only available new at networkdvd.net
	Age Of Consent Just released on dvd this January! Powells last 'proper' film
	The Powell And Pressburger Collection [DVD] Buy new: £19.38 / Used from: £17.99 11 P&P films. Including They're A Weird Mob. Very good value. Although as new editions are released most of this set may become redundant
	The Red Shoes - Music from Powell and Pressburger Films Buy new: £11.98 / Used from: £5.77 At present, the closest to a P&P soundtrack It represents music from 41-51. It isn't perfect, and is occasionally frustrating. Still fairly valuable
	The Spy in Black (1939) ( U-Boat 29 ) ( El Espia Negro ) [DVD] This doesn't look very promising, no idea if it is dubbed in spanish, or has the original english soundtrack. lets hope that this (and powells surving quota-quickies) will be released officially
