"A Matter Of

Life and Death

IN NEW CHROMATIC TECHNICOLOR The first Royal Command Performance film in the history of Motion Pictures

WITH

DAVID D NIVEN ROGER LIVESEY RAYMOND MASSEY KIM HUNTER Why was “A Matter of Life & Death”, chosen as the first motion picture to have a Royal Command Performance, a distinction no other film can claim? Because it is an extra- ordinary film, "advanced" in every phase of production. It is evocative of all the fine things that can be achieved by the mugle of creative elements. It contains poetic dialogue which takes it up to Heaven yet down to earth in its universal appeal. It presents something entirely new: in chromatic technicolor. It has unsurpassed acting and a story that many bo rightly claimed as different.
