The Great Documentary Thread

[jdsmith]

In my never ending quest to fill my external HD, we turn to documentaries.

I've watched quite a few on Iraq and Afghanistan in recent years and I liked Restropo the best.

I saw The Last Train Home last year and that was also fantastic and sad as hell.

I spent the last few days downloading a butt load of them, and the ones that I really want to see are

The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virgina

The Art of the Steal

Shoah

Murderball

My Kid Could Paint That

Koyaanisqatsi

F for Fake

Battle of Chile


among many others, but in case I missed any really good ones, help a brother out, willya?

I couldn't watch it. Too harrowing for me.

How about No direction Home? Only if you're interested in Dylan, of course -- directed by Scorcese.

Or the Beatles Anthology? Its a massive bit of work.

A FLASH DRIVE! Modern technology! Of course.
Or there's that "Dropbox" thingy. Does that work with films?
