Spellbound was pretty neat, so was Winged Migration, which was nominated the year that Columbine won. Which was crap. All of Moore's films are way too slanted to be considered a documentary. I won't go so far as to say he doesn't make good films, but they can't be called documentaries. Anyway, there are some amazing shots in Migration. I have no clue how they got so close to all these birds while they were flying in formation over the Alps, but it's worth seeing just for the camerawork.

Also, there's a film called Grass, about the history of marijuana and other drugs and the legislation that control them. It's narrated by Woody Harrelson and is worth watching just to see jazz legends Cab Calloway and Gene Krupa. The shot of Krupa playing a drum solo is f-ing sweet.

What about the doc about the kids in Arkansas that got framed for murder...I think it was an HBO America Undercover project. "Paradise Lost" I think it was called. They did a follow up on it too. Trey Parker and Matt Stone were involved in promoting it I think. Really good.

Outfoxed. It's about the slant that Fox networks have, and how much of the media they control. Political, but pretty interesting.

Plots are for lazy people.
