Ok...I think you guys know the drill, by now. I love good documentaries...all sorts....political and not.

I'm about to watch 'Inside Job', hoping it's not just spin, and 'Gasland', soon...but I also have and like documentaries on all sorts of things...'Land Without Bread' is totally absent of spin, and one of my favorites. The most recent I saw was 'The Most Hated Family in America', just this weekend.

What are your favorite documentaries, fellow junkies?

I don't remember if it was PBS or the History Channel that ran it, but they did a documentary on the revolutionary war that was fascinating.

Both channels run so many fascinating documentaries, I understand not remembering the name or place of any in particular. Great channels!

Still looking for more good documentaries...

Picked up Gambling, Gods, and LSD, the other day.

I believe it was on PBS a few months ago, but it was called If Marijuana Cured Cancer, I think it was really good, but I was kinda baked the first time I watched it, I've been meaning to give it a second more "sober" viewing, but for some reason I forgot where I stashed it (I have it on DVD)...

[Quaganoca]

This I would love to see.

LOL!

With a recommendation like that...it seems like a must-see.

[Investblogger]

Ok...that's on my must-see list, now.

Crap.

He was an atheist and followed Chomsky, and they turned him into a war hero...missing out entirely on the fact that he was...but not their kind of hero.

[Fededorbprago]

Chomsky???

[Saad Khan]

Chomsky???

Yeah.
Apparently, Tillman became incredibly disillusioned with the wars...actually opposed the invasion of Iraq from the beginning. All the guys in his platoon say he was a real thoughtful guy, and he'd talk about Chomsky a lot. The only reason he stayed in was he'd committed to three years, and he was good to his word.

One of his last actions did save a fellow soldier...the guy was praying, and Tillman told him to quit, and keep his head on straight - his god wasn't going to save him, he needed to be able to think clearly.

No problem! If you get the chance check out the movie. I was wrong about some of the things I had thought about Tillman.

Fuck (2005) "This documentary takes a look on all sides of the infamous F-word. It's taboo,obscene and controversial, yet somehow seems to permeate every single aspect of our culture - from Hollywood, to the schoolyard to the Senate floor in Washington D.C. It's the word at the very center of the debate on Free Speech - and everyone seems to have an opinion."
