Audience Reaction to A Matter Of Life And Death

There were 10 reaction slips returned following the screening of this film.  The responses were:

  • ‘Excellent’: 4 votes
    • Brilliant – The cinematography of Jack Cardiff was literally ‘out of this world’!
      Stood the test of time, despite the stagey performances of some.
    • Beautifully shot in wonderful Technicolor. A real treat from a great film maker.
    • But sound very loud.
  • ‘Very Good’: 4 votes
    • A great film – so good to see it on a big screen, restored. So appropriate for Valentine’s Day!
    • Good that this was shown of Valentine’s Day. Nail biting stuff held one’s attention
      throughout. Good morale booster for the future after WWII
    • An extraordinary achievement for its time; highly imaginative!
    • A novel idea. I was interested to hear the prosecution and defence. David Niven was a good
      choice for the part – lovely eyes
  • ‘Good’: 2 votes
    • A bit too saccharine for my taste.
    • Entertaining but dated in terms of acting style.
  • ‘Satisfactory’: 0 votes
  • ‘Poor’: 0 votes
