I recently watched all the UP documentaries. A fantastic, unrepeatable achievement.

Also just watched Continental Divide.

The UP series is indeed remarkable and unrepeatable. A magnum opus.

A fine director, may he R.I.P.

Obviously, there is not a Noble Prize for film; but if ever there had been a special, isolated and rare exception for doing so, it would have been for Michael Apted and his Up series.

My glass is raised, good sir.

RIP

There's no Nobel Prize either.
