Documentary fans - some recommendations?
 

Looking for some ideas for interesting Documentaries to watch. Most recent ones I've seen are Inside Job (everyone should watch it) Food Inc. (Informative and eye-opening) And Exit through the gift shop which is pretty cool.

Anyone with a suggestion for anything documentary or perhaps even true story films, please post them up :thumbsup

first world war in color

Zeitgeist?

The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters
American Meth
Big Rig
Crazy Sex Cancer
Larry Flynt: The Right to Be Left Alone

Good call Brujah! :thumbsup

"This video tells the story of how Dr. Burzynski, and the patients his therapy has cured of what are normally terminal cancers, have fought the FDA and the big drug companies who have continually and systematically tried to discredit and punish a man who's only purpose in life has been to develop and perfect a life-giving and non-toxic cure for the disease of the 20th century. "

Burzynski: Cancer is Serious Business FDA Tyranny

I liked the Story of Anvil. I remember them from when I was a kid though, might not be so great for non-Canadians who have never heard of them.

This is one of the most important videos you'll ever see; an interview with Aaron Russo, former friend of Nick Rockefeller. He was dying from Cancer and decided to spill the beans on the Rockefeller's plans for the world

Freedom to Fascism.

Along with the Aaron Russo video above, this is equally as important, it's an interview with Norman Dodd, former head researcher for the Reece Committee. He spent his life researching the Tax Exempt Foundations, he eventually discovered the disturbing truth behind them; they are there to create war, this is because war is the easiest time to make changes to the way we live, to eventually shape the world into one that leaves the Banker's in total control. World Wars I and II were both planned and funded from New York, but it was just to make changes in the world, not for the reasons that 99% of the people imagine.

Anything with Louis Theroux

In the Name of the Father (based on a true story).

Conspiracy (a recreation of the Wannsee Conference)

Beyond the Steppes (the writer/director based the story on the life of her grandmother.) (worth watching!)

The People Vs. Larry Flynt

Das Experiment (A psychological experiment in which test subjects are divided into "prisoners" and "guards". Story based on the 1971 stanford experiments.)

Dirty Pictures (A museum curator on trial for displaying "obscene" photographs defends his free speech rights. Based on a true story.)

and: Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (fiction, but banned in a lot of countries because of how critical it was of certain political practices)

"Bigger Stronger Faster"

awesome documentary about steroids and atheletes

I don't believe that Burzynski has a cure that is being covered up, so is there another reason to watch this video?

This one, Aaron claims that Nick told him 9 months before 9/11 that there was going to be an event, etc... did Aaron ever talk about this pre-9/11? It's all to easy to claim you knew something was going to happen *after* it happened. Not only that, does Nick Rockefeller have any real credentials other than a surname?

Looks solid.I'll have to pick that one up!

Very well done doc for sure!

we live in public.

Gasland
Magic Trip story of Ken Kesey and the Merry Prankster's

The BBC's very interesting Hitler's Children.

The Ambassador (2011) www.imdb.com/title/tt2048877/

About how corrupt diplomatic positions in Africa are.

"World at War" multi part series on ww2. Interviews with people like hitlers secretary, albert spier, etc...

"Forks over knives" will blow your mind on how you look at food, meat and health in general.

"Fat Sick and Nearly Dead" If you need a change in your life, this is such an inspiring health story.

"Bigger stronger faster" was def. a cool look at roids and the truth.

"Pumping Iron" Arnold swarzenneger 70's documentary, that launched his career and you'll understand why. Such a magnetic character. Also, the making of, is a must see.

Inside Job (2010) - Won the academy award for best documentary.

A far more real version of the financial crisis than you'll ever see on mainstream "news"

Ancient Aliens.

It shows what the FDA will do to protect the Cancer industry, if one looks back over the years you discover that people have had their labs burned down and some have even been murdered. It's vital for everyone to believe this 'Cancer Research' myth, that it's an illness that's very difficult to cure.

"Everyone should know that most cancer research is largely a fraud and that the major cancer research organisations are derelict in their duties to the people who support them."

Linus Pauling PhD (Two-time Nobel Prize winner)

The 9/11 part is a small detail of the interview, but it sounds like Russo didn't take the information seriously until after it happened.

Nick Rockefeller is one of the clan, you'll recognize him here doing business in China

If you haven't watched the Paradise Lost trilogy yet they are great.

Project Azorian

What about other countries? Japan? China? Russia? Israel? UK? Europe? Scandinavia? Cuba? Venezuela? etc... especially countries where health care costs are high and provided by the government. There's nothing much preventing them from curing cancer.

I'm not buying it, because he had been very political and conspiracy-minded previous to 9/11. He made films about this kind of thing and it would've been something he'd have mentioned, not kept quiet about until 7 or 8 years later.

Sorry, but as I've said before I'm highly skeptical and I require more proof than very loosely based information after the fact.

Whores' Glory - extraordinary and beautifully presented documentary about prostitutes in Thailand, Bangladesh and Mexico. The whole thing is subtitled but really worth watching.

If you want to be brainwashed: anything by Michael Moore.

One of my personal favorites, it's amazing how much misinformation about steroids is being floated out there. Last I heard Chris Bell was trying to raise funds for his next documentary, "Trophy Kids", about parents living vicariously through their kids athletic accomplishments...

Negroes with Guns

Harlan County, USA (Oldie But Goodie)

Manufacturing Consent

The Power of Nightmares (or anything by Adam Curtis really)

Anything by John Pilger

Anything by Werner Herzog

Fake edit: was beaten to it, but there's a link to it.

White Light Black Rain was a good documentary

Fixed that for ya :thumbsup

Oh, and for fans of Adam Curtis:



The Power of Nightmares is excellent, and coherent, but the above video was, I think, made in response to "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace", which was just spurious, nonsensical bullshit.

By the way, if you want to follow a very talented up and coming documentary director you should check out Sean Dunne. So far he has directed short documentaries The Archive and the beautifully shot American Juggalo http://americanjuggalo.com/, and now he is working on his first full length documentary Oxyana, about a town in West Virginia that is stricken with Oxycontin addiction http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...d-by-sean-dunn. The kid is talented as fuck and you're going to be hearing a lot from him in the future... :2 cents:
