Cinephiles who hear the name Michael Powell are likely to think of his collaborations with Emeric Pressburger and their insistence on dazzling Technicolor spectacle — but they should also be thinking ‘industry-changing VFX connoisseur’ as his 1940 historical fantasy remake of The Thief of Bagdad (co-directed alongside Ludwig Berger and Tim Whelan) was actually the first movie to ever use blue screen! Fans of The Red Shoes, fret not, for there’s still plenty of Technicolor to be found, and while The Thief of Bagdad may not hold the distinction of being the first color movie like 1939’s The Wizard of Oz is often apocryphally rumored to be, it’s definitely the first film to feature special effects on such an all-consuming scale. Make no mistake, The Thief of Bagdad is the Avatar of the 1940s, but over 80 years later, can it even hold a candle to the VFX-heavy films of today?
