Yes. This ones good, although I do have an unhealthy interest in prison documentaries.

I still watch these sometimes, they always seem to be showing repeats on dave right around the time i get home from work. His attempts to fit in with the locals are always good for a laugh

It's jokes man. Classic good guy vs dick head story!

Watched a Bobby Fischer documentary not too long ago as well, can't remember the name but would definitely recommend.

Another weird/intriguing one:
Hands on a Hard Body - Bunch of nutcase Americans with no lives participate in an endurance competition to win a car. Whoever can hold their hand on the body for the longest wins.

I'm a sucker for WW1/WW2/izan docs....if anyone's got any non-obvious suggestions, fire away! Particularly WW1

I can't really get bored of them to be honest, i have this mega dvd boxset of all the ones he's ever done, like 30 discs or something, and they get rinsed all the time.

justified though

Also
Pumping Iron - Schwarzenegger is a massive tnuc (i'm not talking about his physical size)
Victoria Cross Heroes - Stiff upper lip, chaps!
Decisive Weapons - How advances in technology won battles throughout the ages. All the way through the English longbow and Japanese Samurai sword to the Hawker Hurricane and Stealth Bomber.

Anything about Romans, Greeks, Eygptians i'll be on it

grizzly man is still one of my faves

cant go wrong with louie theroux

obv bruce parry (as already mentioned)

"magic trip" is cool n all, follows ken keesys bus across america

2m30s in and I'm already pissing myself with laughter


Cheers for the heads up on this, will make good watching tomorrow

All i've seen is that picture of his hair and i know this is going to be good

Apocalypse: the second world war. Don't know if that's obvious or not, I don't watch all that many documentaries, but it's amazing. Entirely composed of narrated WW2 colour footage.

Botany of Desire
Ages of Empire: The Medicis
Note by Note: The Making of Steinway L1037
Imelda
Lagerfeld Confidential
BBC Story of India
Cry of the Snow Lion

If you like Anthony Bourdain, you will like Karl Lagerfeld...
He is like - the older, slightly fruitier, european version of him...

The Imelda documentary was really eye opening - I had no idea what was going on over there...
and this doc shows both her camp and the dissenters view side by side...very interesting

nice one everyone. Think I'm gonna have enough documentarieds to last a lifetime by the time you're done

One more!

Synth Britannia.

AMERICAN MOVIE.
