Yeah, I've always been curious to see these. Thanks for the suggestion. Video stores have a real problem when it comes to stocking documentaries...

I saw most of these in film school at OU in the late 80's. I was fortunate enough to see 35 and 42 Up on video. I had to travel 45 miles to rent them however.

Have you seen The Color of Fear?
