this movie have the most beautiful opening sequence ever make . i have see this movie for the first time a week ago and since then every day i see the opening and every time i feel as thrill a i felt the first time i heard david niven utter the immortal word from sir walter raleigh the pilgrimage representgive me my scallop shell of quiet and my staff of faith to walk upon and my scrip of joy and immortal diet and my bottle of salvation and my gown of glory and hope true gage while and thus i will take my pilgrimage ( ) do you know why it would be a truism to say michael powell and emeric pressuburger life be thoroughly justify for have craft such a wonderful opening . because they have be already admit in the paradise of poet long before they make this movie . i imagine both of them face trial during doomsday and say nonchalantly to an irate god represent i beg your pardon and sir . so and do you want to know what have we do during our lifetime . well and well you will see represent we have write direct and produce represent i know where i be go and colonel blimp and red shoe do you think that enough sir . it be rather obvious that these two great artist have already fulfil their duty with god and nature the muse or whatever you may call it when they shoot a matter of life and death . the fact that other people life would be justify for their deed could be not apparent to everybody and notwithstanding i feel my life would have a meaning have i never do anything else that to see this movie . of course old timer will be tempt to say represent they do not do movie like this one any more . they will be partially mistake while they do not make movie like this in the past time either . i have have already quote keats here and but i will repeat his word represent a thing of beauty be a joy forever .
