This week, we discuss two classic British films from Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger.

The first is Black Narcissus (1947), which explores the psychological unraveling of nuns in a remote Himalayan convent as desire and isolation take hold.

The second is The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp (1943), which traces the life of a British officer through love, war and friendship, challenging ideas of honour and aging.
