49 Up
49 Up is the seventh film in a series of important documentaries that began 42 years ago when Granada's World in Action team, inspired by a Jesuit maxim, made a series of films about the world. "Give me the child until he's seven, and I'll give you the man." This is what he said when he interviewed a group of seven-year-olds from all over England. A researcher for the original film has been back to interview the "children" every seven years since, at ages 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, and now at age 49. Michael Apted has done this every seven years. In this new chapter, more life-changing decisions are made, more shocking announcements are made, and more of the original group is involved than ever before. They speak out about love, marriage, class, and prejudice.
