The first of four films about people with a passion to possess great art and the money to indulge it.
Written and narrated by Harriet Crawley Forbes and Sons
'I look at much and if.... nostalgia, recollection, whatever it is.... turns me on, I buy it.'
American publisher Malcolm Forbes and sons Kip, Bobby and Steve are known as America's first family of collecting. They have a boyish enthusiasm for acquiring things that would leave most people gasping for breath. Their priceless collections are scattered around the world, from
Morocco to Colorado. They range from Old Master and Victorian paintings to toy soldiers, toy boats, modern motorbikes, American historical documents and, worth over a million pounds each, 11 Faberge Imperial Russian easter eggs.

Introduced by Peter Schaufuss dancer, Artistic Director of London Festival Ballet, and star of the recent BBCtv Dancer series.
Silence is the End of Our Song A ballet danced to a series of songs from Chile, and dedicated to the people of that country and their sufferings. Using documentary film - seen as hazy memories - and the words of the songs as well, it moves from light into darkness, from celebration to the need for courage in the face of political adversity or the threat of death. But it remains a gentle, personal and human statement.
This ballet was specially created for Danish television by British choreographer
CHRISTOPHER BRUCE , one-time associate artistic director of Ballet Rambert and well known to television viewers for his performances and televised ballets and his Cruel Garden, which won the BBC the Prix Italia Music Prize in 1982. Produced and directed by THOMAS GRIMM Series titles
