Documentay Recommendations

Simple, just like the Movie one, just list some pretty good documentaries that you've seen and think they'd be ones others would enjoy.
Watched a 9/11 documentary, was called in plaine sight(sp?) Was alright, nothing really was on netflix at the moment so it was just something to watch.
Super High Me- If you've seen Super Size Me its pretty much just like that.
Has some comedians in it as well, found it pretty interesting.

You ever seen Hoop Dreams? It's a great, great movie/ documentary.
Also Looking for Richard is a good documentary featuring Al Pacino, Hearts of Darkness based on Francis Coppola's Apocalypse Now, and the problems on set, budgets, and things like that

You ever heard of David Attenbrough?
He makes these amazing nature documentaries. Even if you don't like nature stuff, it's quite stunning what he manages.
I recommend 'Planet Earth'.

Restrepo. The documentary centers on Second Platoon, B Company, 2nd Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment (airborne) of the 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team in the Korengal valley.
It's just a straight-up raw documentary. No political spin or agenda's, which is very rare coming out of Hollyweird these days.

Speaking of Restrepo...
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/04/20/journalists-reportedly-killed-libya/#ixzz1K9gG8JD3
MISRATA, Libya – Two western photojournalists were killed and several others were seriously injured in Libya Wednesday while covering battles between Muammar al-Qaddafi's forces and anti-government rebels, Human Rights Watch confirmed to Fox News.
Tim Hetherington -- who was nominated for an Oscar this year with co-director Sebastian Junger for "Restrepo," a documentary about U.S. troops in Afghanistan, and Chris Hondros, a New York-based photographer for the Getty agency -- were reportedly killed in the volatile city of Misrata.

Restrepo is amazing. The video is taken by the Sebastian Junger who wrote War. It's his thoughts and stories that go with the movie. Incredible read. If you want a little insight to life overseas-- you gotta read it.
