Stupidity has saved many a man from going mad

If you have to die and you are ordered to die, but you don't, who is responsible? Like the British soldier who jumps out of a burning plane without a parachute and survives without a scratch! This is something that needs to be resolved in a celestial trial! A Matter of Life and Death, by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, is quite a masterpiece. For a 40s film, the technical execution is brilliant. The visuals are absolutely stunning.  And the story itself is gorgeous. A love story set in a wild cosmic setting. A timeless classic.
