    This is quite an interesting documentary that follows Bill & Joe Beresford as they transport their cargo from Brentford in West London on the 140 miles journey to Birmingham. Negotiating dozens of locks, some engine troubles and travelling at what seems like quite a leisurely speed, around a week later they arrive. The pace of this, and the accompanying narration provides us with quite an amiable look at just how effective the canals were at transporting bulky goods the length and breadth of the country, but it has to be said - it also demonstrates just how vulnerable these maritime packhorses were to the advent of railways and motorways. More modern modes of transport could do this return journey possibly twenty times in the time it takes these skilful boatsmen to do one single trip. What's also quite clear is the labour intensity involved loading and unloading, lock operating and the whole business of maintaining the canals which again must have proven increasingly uneconomical in the face of more convenient and frequent alternatives as the 1940s became the 1950s. There's clearly an extensive network of waterways that criss-crosses much of England and we do get a sense of just how they made inland industrial areas accessible for raw materials and food distribution alike, and at times how they incorporate the natural river routes to complement their own man-made contours. Some canals are wide, some narrow, some capable of handling larger boats and after almost two centuries, are still a remarkable testament to the imaginative engineering behind these once vital arteries. A nice piece of cinema and transport nostalgia, this.

Iverson

Iverson is the ultimate legacy of NBA legend Allen Iverson, who rose from a childhood of crushing poverty in Hampton, Virginia, to become an 11-time NBA All-Star and universally recognized icon of his sport. Off the court, his audacious rejection of conservative NBA convention and unapologetic embrace of hip hop culture sent shockwaves throughout the league and influenced an entire generation. Told largely in Iverson's own words, the film charts the career highs and lows of one of the most distinctive and accomplished figures the sport of basketball has ever seen.
