Thought I'd start a thread on good documentaries, plus web links, dvds etc.
A few of my favourite old bbc warhorses are up on Youtube (search for these)
The Ascent of Man (J. Bronowski)
The Body in Question (Jonathan Miller)
Ways of Seeing (John Berger)
The Shock of the New (Robert Hughes)
Born Talking (Jonathan Miller)
Connections (James Burke)
Atheism - A History of Disbelief (Jonathan Miller)
Documentaries by Adam Curtis
- in particular: The Century of the Self, The Mayfair Set, The Power of Nightmares, The Way of All Flesh, Pandora's Box
Was also struck by a film called 'The Smell of Paradise' (search on Google video)
Do suggest others...
Documentaries
Re: Documentaries
i think there is already a thread in the film forum. i'll dig it up and merge in a bit.
