49 Up Summary
Director: Michael Apted
Genres: Family & Personal Relationships, Culture & Society
Rating:

Filmmaker Michael_Apted returns to the director's chair to catch up with the subjects he has been following since the 1963 telefilm 7_Up with this sequel to 1999's 42_Up. In the seventh installment of the long-running documentary series, Apted continues to follow the lives of everyone from aspiring jockey and part-time actor Tony to teacher Bruce and barrister John -- who returns to the series following a self-imposed exile that preceded 42_Up. While many of Apted's subjects seem to have settled into a comfortable existence, sharp-tongued Jackie and once-troubled Neil inject a bit of liveliness into the mix by recalling their colorful pasts and questioning the director's motivations with the Up series.
