In one of documentary cinema's more remarkable enterprises, "49 Up" makes its U.S. broadcast premiere on PBS' "P.O.V." series on Tuesday, October 9 at 9 PM (check local listings) as the seventh in a series of films that has profiled a group of English children every seven years, beginning in 1964. Renowned director Michael Apted (Coal Miner's Daughter, Gorky Park, Gorillas in the Mist) has doggedly pursued the series as the children have grown into adults, navigating the divide between childhood dreams and adult realities. "49 Up" revisits questions of love, marriage, career, class and prejudice — discovering unexpected turns in individual lives and surprising views of the Up film series itself.

Grownups is a wonderful story, and Sandler did it again, well done mister. Saw it on direct-movie-links,com, sum guy posted it and well...very well worth watching. Cant wait for cinemas, frankly.

I actually like sandler, makes nice solid comedies, with a note. Guy posted this at direct-movie-links,com, I did see it, and its pretty good comedy. Will take my wife and kids with me to cinema when it comes here in UK.
