BBC’s “Up” Series

I first watched this in high school, and honestly get a hankering to rewatch every couple years or so. I find it fascinating the way it manages to capture life’s challenges and triumphs, including in ways that constantly and inevitably break the fourth wall. Highly recommend watching the series from the start, if you’ve got the patience for some repetition — if for nothing else, there’s something interesting, too, in observing how documentary filmmaking transforms over the decades.
