    Somehow I couldn't help but think, here, that the buildings that were being demolished were considerably more characterful than the glass and concrete structures that were replacing them. Anyway, this short documentary introduces us to a building crew and to the activities of those tasked with the construction and assembly involved in putting up New York's Tishman Building on 5th Avenue. From the surveyors, architects, draughtsmen through the entire excavation and occasionally quite perilous construction process we see it rise like the proverbial phoenix. It's quite watchable this, but the director has a bit of a penchant for too much crooning and what might even pass for some early rap, before we get some natural sound and images of the site-clearing and the building. Interestingly, they take the debris to New Jersey to help infill the marshland there. Technology and manual labour work closely together and luckily we cram most of this extended process into a 20 minutes that is peppered with a lively narration from those responsible for doing the work - indoor and out. I still get slightly acrophobic watching these folk walking tight-rope shaped steel girders hundreds of feet in the air. Not a job - or a watch - for the feint hearted! Who knew 20% of the costs went on the air-con installation, or that the fitting took as long as the frame?

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg now 84, and still inspired by the lawyers who defended free speech during the Red Scare, Ginsburg refuses to relinquish her passionate duty, steadily fighting for equal rights for all citizens under the law. Through intimate interviews and unprecedented access to Ginsburg’s life outside the court, RBG tells the electric story of Ginsburg’s consuming love affairs with both the Constitution and her beloved husband Marty—and of a life’s work that led her to become an icon of justice in the highest court in the land.
