Give me the child until he is seven and I will give you the man is the biblical phrase under which director Michael Apted constructed a TV series in 1964. But this was no ordinary show. Hugely ambitious, Apted decided to interview a diverse range of 7 year old children from all over England. Then, every seven years, he would meet up with his subjects again and discover how their lives had progressed. This release offers the original show, alongside every instalment up to the age of 42. The development of the kids from infants, to teenagers, to adults is astonishing. Neil seems like a loveable upper class kid with a bright future. He ends up homeless. Tony seems like a cheeky young boy with working class roots. He ends up as a cab driver. Some fit into their expected roles within society, some go in completely the opposite direction. It all adds up to a fascinating sociological experiment from director Apted, and it's a testament to his abilities that his subjects willingly return to him for each installment of the show. For viewers hooked on reality television, this is the original--and some would say best--example of the genre.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additioal Release Material: Audio Commentary BiographiesText/Photo Galleries: Photo Gallery

American Jobs (DVD) American Jobs (DVD) » American Jobs (DVD)

A nonpartisan investigation into the problem of American job outsourcing, Greg Spotts' self-funded documentary is an insightful glimpse into the issue via the personal lives of those affected by the trend. As more and more American corporations are replacing American job holders with foreign workers, who are willing to work for less pay, US families are left without resources or an economic foothold. Meanwhile, foreign workers are exploited, and corporate CEOs are the only ones who come out ahead. Spotts observes firsthand the structural and damaging effects of the global sourcing epidemic, visiting 19 cities and towns, and logging over 80 hours of interview hours. The only conclusion to emerge from this open-ended exploration is the certainty of the dire consequences introduced when business interests are put before those of the human being.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: (unspecified) - English

Super Size Me (FS/DVD) Super Size Me (FS/DVD) » Super Size Me (FS/DVD)

In this hilarious yet informative documentary, debut director Morgan Spurlock makes himself the victim of a cruel experiment: he puts himself on a 30-day diet of nothing but McDonald's food. Eating three meals a day exclusively from McDonald's, Spurlock's health quickly deteriorates. The film documents the process from beginning to end, with Spurlock and his doctors making observations and monitoring the changes to his energy level, moods, liver and kidney function, and obviously his weight. As viewers might predict, Spurlock gains weight at an alarming rate, and during this process he offers a shocking lesson about the serious problem of obesity in America. Clearly McDonald's receives the brunt of the blame, as Spurlock shows how the fast-food restaurant directs its advertising at small children, who are converted into faithful consumers of the brand--and its free toy giveaways, bright colors, and Ronald McDonald clown--for life. Spurlock also examines the quality of the food itself, showing the processes by which favorite products like McNuggets are made. He also shows the proliferation of McDonald's chains both in the U.S. and worldwide. Meanwhile, Spurlock's girlfriend--a vegan chef--observes Spurlock's experiment with disgust and disdain, providing one of many comic elements to the film. Educational, fun, and at times downright gross, SUPER SIZE ME takes a different approach to illustrating America's obsession with fast food.DVD Features:Region (Unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Audio Commentary - Morgan Spurlock - Director Production Interviews - 1.
