And yet that\u2019s kind of what A Matter of Life and Death is, even by today\u2019s standards. Directors Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger put together a finely crafted film that follows a deceased soldier who, thanks to an issue with Heaven\u2019s soul collection, may get a second chance at life on Earth. The movie is praised for its use of visuals and the artistic vision that brings it all to life on screen.<\/p>\n<h2>2.
