One I forgot to mention that I saw a couple of weeks ago that was pretty interesting:
How to Get the Man's Foot Outta Your Ass
It stars Mario Van Peebles playing his father Melvin Van Peebles as he tries to make his film Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song, which gave birth to the blaxploitation genre.
One pretty funny trivia piece I saw on the IMDB.com page for Sweet Sweetback: "Melvin Van Peebles contracted gonorrhea from one of the actresses during filming of one of the sex scenes in the movie. He applied for compensation from the Directors Guild because he "got hurt on the job" and used the money to buy more film."
