When James Cagney starred in the movie adaptation of The Time of Your Life in 1948, it was hotly been debated whether William Saroyans stage play was really filmable at all. Because of its small cast, because all the action takes place on a single claustrophobic set, because the "plot" consists entirely of sub-plots, and because Saroyans "dirty sentimentality" isnt to everyones taste, such doubts are still understandable today. However, accept the movie for what it is--a play in a box--and youll be captivated. The story revolves around a slightly down-at-heel bar-restaurant, where a group of disparate characters come and go as their stories gradually unfold. They include an ex-prostitute desperately seeking a new life, a dancer looking for a break into showbusiness, a down-and-out who discovers a vocation as a pianist, a beer-sodden cowboy and a villainous "stoolie" who, needless to say, gets his comeuppance. This gaggle of misfits is presided over by an enigmatic, champagne-drinking philanthropist (brilliantly played by Cagney) who gently nudges them towards their goals while indulging his own fascination with the minutiae of daily life. Throughout this quietly delightful picture the audience are not told why hes this way, but it is possible to make an educated guess. On the DVD: The Time of Your Life might be a classic, but it apparently warrants no extra features. The black and white picture is 4:3. --Roger Thomas

Man had been attempting to fly for hundreds of years but it was not until the Wright brothers made their historic first flight in 1903 that powered controllable flight became a reality.A History of Flight narrated by Tom Baker tells the complete story of aviation from its pioneering days at the start of the 20th century through to a celebration of its achievement 100 years later. This programme features archive footage that documents the earliest experiments with flight (as well as some of the heroic failures!) including Louis Bleriot who made the first flight across the English Channel in 1909.The programme moves on to chronicle the rise in the importance of air-power during two World Wars with incredible footage of the Sopwith Camel and Fokker Tri-planes of World War I and the Lancaster bombers Messerschmidts and Spitfires that fought for control of the skies in World War II.Between the wars we see Alcock and Brown complete the first non-stop flight across the Atlantic in a modest Vickers Vimy bomber in 1919 a plane that also helped pioneer the evolution of passenger travel. Charles Lindbergh went one better in 1927 by achieving the first solo flight across the Atlantic and Amelia Earhart became the first woman to do this a year later.Out of WWII came the jet age with the Messerschmidt ME262 the first jet-fighter and the Comet the first jet airliner. The first Jumbo Jet flew in 1966 and aviation reached new heights and speeds with the launch of Concorde in 1969 a plane that finally retired from service some 25 years later.The programme is brought up to date with the latest Airbus A340-600 as well as a look at the amazing developments of military aircraft including the deadly Stealth Bomber.Add in a look at rockets and space shuttles as well as celebrations of the centenary of flight from Biggin Hill and other airshows and you have the complete story of 100 years of flight.
