                                  An old man whose wife has just passed away uses his free local bus pass to travel
                                  to the other end of the UK, to where they originally moved from, using only local
                                  buses, on a nostalgic trip but also carrying his wife's ashes in a small suitcase,
                                  `taking her back' and in doing so he meets local people. By the end of his trip he's

                                  This Is It.  November 13,  6:30 PM   2009,  Documentary Style

                                  This is a fascinating look at what it takes to put together a huge live production.

                                  In the weeks before his death, Michael Jackson (August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009)
                                  was rehearsing a show, "This Is It," that was to open in July. This film begins with
                                  a few of the auditioning dancers speaking to the camera about why they're trying
                                  out and what Jackson means to them. Then we plunge into rehearsals at Staples
                                  Center in Los Angeles. The film is arranged by musical number with pre-recorded
                                  material and footage from Jackson's various rehearsals edited together to take us
                                  through what would have been the concert's set list.

                                  Hassan Kadam (Manish Dayal) is an extraordinarily talented and largely self-
                                  taught culinary novice. When he and his family are displaced from their native
                                  India and settle in a quaint French village, they decide to open an Indian eatery.
                                  However, Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren), the proprietress of an acclaimed res-
                                  taurant just 100 feet away, strongly objects. War erupts between the two estab-
                                  lishments, until Mallory recognizes Kadam's impressive epicurean gifts and takes
                                  him under her wing.
