1929 : The Great Crash
A documentary exploring the causes of the 1929 Wall Street Crash.
Over six terrifying, desperate days in October 1929, shares crashed by a third on the New York Stock Exchange. More than $25 billion in individual wealth was lost. Later, three thousand banks failed, taking people's savings with them. Surviving eyewitnesses describe the biggest financial catastrophe in history.
In 1919, the US had emerged victorious and dominant from World War One. Britain and its European allies were exhausted financially from the war. In contrast, the US economy was thriving and the world danced to the American tune.
Easy credit and mass production set the tone in the roaring twenties for an era of consumption like none that had ever been seen before. The stock market rose and investors piled in, borrowing money to cash in on the bubble. In 1928, the market went up by 50 per cent in just 12 months. The crash was followed by a devastating worldwide depression that lasted until the Second World War. Shares did not regain their pre-crash values until 1954.
This is the story of a financial disaster that we hoped could never happen again.

A series of killings of bank managers has London in a turmoil, all the way up to Parliament. And the killer regularly calls about his handiwork, but only to a street-wise, and usually rather tipsy, radio reporter, about to be sacked for his habitual irreverence toward his station and the BBC. And while everything seems to point to a lead singer of a rock group famous for the "In The Red" music which has been connected to the killings, in typical British mystery fashion, there are also other sub-plots to be considered.

亨利五世身为王子时沉湎于声色犬马,不思进取,后来在父亲的病榻前立誓痛改前非,誓要重振祖宗疆业,随后率领英军抗击入侵的法军,被列为世界“十大会战”的阿金库尔战役就此展开。 其时英国兵力远在法军之下,英军主力为轻装步兵,而且老弱病残、良莠不齐。经过一番远途跋涉后,粮草告罄,士气更是低迷。而对手则重甲骑兵,又有火炮助阵,兵强马壮,粮秣充沛,斗志十足。在天时、地利、人和尽失的恶劣局面下,如何战胜强大的敌人成为亨利五世面临的最大挑战。生死存亡之际,亨利五世积极面对眼前的天大逆境,显示出作为一代雄主的智慧与霸气,以其三寸不烂之舌与气吞天下的领袖魅力,终于一振士气,大败法军。自此疆境一统,扬威海外,成为英国人人称颂的一代英主。而后英法政治联姻,亨利五世与法国公主卡莎琳结婚,一跃而成为英法两国的国王…… 劳伦斯奥立佛在1944年拍摄的《亨利五世》,描写英国国王亨利五世的痛苦与试炼,一直是该剧的代表电影作品,直到19八9年,肯尼斯布莱纳再度将《亨利五世》搬上大银幕,以狂暴的战斗场面、心碎的爱情故事,成就了一部更强而有力、更气势磅礡的电影巨作。 此片是描写1415年时,英国国王亨利五世受到法国国王羞辱后,决定领军进攻法国,但是一路上他不但要面对消沉的士气,还有自己内心的疑虑。片中的战争场面以慢动作强化其血腥与残酷,观者根本很难分辨出是英军还是法军(虽然法军看起来厉害多了),两方士兵互相砍劈、刺杀、践踏,当战争结束之时,你会感觉英军的胜利,和军队的战略组织好象没有什么关系,反倒像是老天保佑下的奇迹。 片中真正的高潮,不是在战争场面,而是在双方和平协议之时,肯尼斯布莱纳所饰演的亨利五世,必须向法国国王的女儿凯萨琳(艾玛汤普逊 饰演)求婚。当他和他的战争新娘同处一室时,两人之间的爱恋、恩怨纠缠在一起,这才是剧中的最高潮处。 肯尼斯布莱纳所饰演的亨利五世,融合了领袖气质与道义良心,他被迫要权衡自己的权力欲望和众人的生命轻重,最后他彷佛是融合了甘乃迪、巴顿将军与史恩康纳莱的本领,将自己投身于对法军的战役中。片中,亨利五世在战争前,对所有士兵的一席动人演说,即使没有汹涌澎湃的交响乐伴奏,也是一样的气势非凡。
