49 UP
Series: The 44th New York Film Festival [Sept 29 - Oct 15 2006]
Director: Michael Apted , Country: United Kingdom, Release: 2006, Runtime: 135

Apted’s Up series stands as one of the most significant, noble, textured, sympathetic and complex portraits of human nature to grace the history of cinema. Every seven years, the participants of this amazing documentary project have been tracked down by director Michael Apted and captured on film in the process of simply living.

This latest episode is a triumphant summation and capstone, as the original group copes with middle age and the meaning of their lives, while challenging their chronicler/tormenter about the price they pay for being put under such public scrutiny. We see them grappling with ambitions altered and dreams deferred, marriages shattered or resiliently maintained, idealistic efforts to improve the world met with frustration or quiet success.

Screening at Alice Tully Hall, north side of 65th Street west of Broadway.
