Favorite documentaries
Just finished watching a fascinating documentary on an ill-fated round-the-world solo sailing race in 1969 called Deep Water:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460766/ I have always enjoyed good quality documentaries. Some of my favorites (in no particular order): 1. Fog of War Robert McNamara looks back on his career http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317910/ 2. Touching the Void Story of hiking disaster in the Andes http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379557/ 3. Riding Giants History of big wave surfing http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0389326/ 4. King of Kong Battle for video game immortality http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0923752/ 5. Jesus Camp Camp for kids in midwest http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0486358/ Of course, I am not including the various Ken Burns PBS series or any of the Michael Moore movies, since those are all so well known. So what are some of your favorite documentaries? I am looking for some ideas for my Blockbuster Online queue.
