Well thanks a lot cinesmith, I just finished watching this and it's ruined my day/week/month. It's made me feel so powerless and trapped in an evil, twisted, sadistic and cruel system controlled by oligarchs that no-one and nothing can change. We're all done for unless some benevolent revolutionary can unite the forces of good and lead us out of this hell-hole.
It's hard to argue with Curtis's arguments, they're really persuasive. He managed to sum everything up perfectly and it all made sense. This is why the world's as completely fucked as it is, folks.
P.S. Poor old Colonel Gadaffi! So sad what we did to him, what he sometimes allowed us to do to him, and how conservative western leaders used him like some pathetic clown to distract the world from the truly horrific developments happening in the Middle East.
It must have cost a lot with all the film excerpts they had, bits from Carrie all the way to Tarkovsky's Stalker. Soundtrack was excellent, too.
They Shall Not Grow Old (2018) Peter Jackson Absolutely stunning. A more eye opening documentary than any other that I've seen that covered WWI
if not only for the composition being entirely interwoven with veteran interviews in all walks of their experiences. It is also made up of restored film footage that has been adapted to carry both an audio track to bring it to life as well as color that at times isn't the best quality but in others it changes the feel for the experience entirely. A good deal of the footage came from Jackson's grandfather who fought in the war but also compiled a good deal of the film which had stored in a back yard shed and was only discovered after his death.

Higher education: Here are 5 of the best documentaries about weed out now
From nuns who grow to Fab 5 Freddy's look into how American music was shaped by weed, there's a story for everyone
By Ashlie D. Stevens

When most people think of weed movies, films like "The Big Lebowski," "Pineapple Express" and the "Harold and Kumar" franchise likely come to mind. But over the last several years, as marijuana legalization continues to spread across the country alongside decriminalization efforts, some fantastic documentaries have debuted that challenge the idea that weed entertainment is restricted to stoner comedies.
Don't get me wrong; there's a lot of fun to be had in the world of weed documentaries — there are gun-toting "nuns" who grow marijuana, letters that illuminate Louis Armstrong's pot habit, and newsroom drama at the Denver Post, the first newspaper in the United States to have a "pot editor."
But there's also a lot to be learned, too. So, in observance of 4/20 (and really, any day you like to observe), here are our picks for the best weed documentaries for some, well, higher education.
"Grass is Greener," Netflix
Fred Brathwaite — the former "Yo! MTV Raps" host who is probably better known as Fab 5 Freddy — opens this documentary by lighting up and musing to the camera, "I'm a longtime cannabis connoisseur and advocate." Through his eyes, viewers take a journey through the history of the connection between music culture and marijuana in America, from Cab Calloway's 1932 jazz hit "Reefer Man" to modern hip hop and rap.
"Grass is Greener" is packed with amazing lines from academics and music experts — like, "Louis [Armstrong] was one of our early, glorious potheads," — as well as evidence of how musicians have long advocated for the legalization of marijuana. For example, Armstrong was once quoted as saying, "All I want is a permit to carry that good s**t."
But inherent to the narrative is, of course, racism. With the help of musicians Killer Mike, Snoop Dog and B-Real, Freddy outlines the ways in which America's insistence on cannabis prohibition was motivated by a fear of Blackness (or, as some white politicians coded it, "jazz culture") and Mexican immigration.
"Grass is Greener" is a fascinating documentary that uses music history to tell an approachable story about America's war on drugs, with a heady thread throughout of how weed has long served as a lightning rod for artistic creativity and political discourse.
"Breaking Habits," Vudu
Alright, so as a documentary, "Breaking Habits" is not without its faults. The pacing is disjointed (pun not intended) and the editing choices are occasionally confusing. That said, the characters are absolutely wild. You thought Joe Exotic was bananas? Meet Sister Kate, a self-anointed nun who, after spending her life as a Reagan Republican, became a marijuana grower once her secretly polygamist husband conned her out of her life savings.
Sister Kate — who, in her previous life as a communications professional, was known as Christine Meeusen — started a new life in Merced, California with her three children after her marriage inevitably blew up. After some starts and stops in trying to get a medical marijuana business off the ground, Sister Kate found success once she donned a nun's habit and had all the women she employed do the same. Despite having no ties to the Catholic Church, she dubbed the group the Sisters of the Valley and fashioned herself as an "anarchist, activist nun."
She isn't the only big character in "Breaking Habits." There's her son, a former methamphetamine addict who is currently on an all-you-can-smoke marijuana treatment program devised by the Sisters. There's a staunchly anti-weed pastor who cautions parishioners that smoking could very well cost them their immortal souls, a message that is only reinforced by the local sheriff.
What "Breaking Habits" lacks in nuance, it makes up for in drama. Come for the weed puns, stay for the gunfight (!) that has the weed nuns grabbing their rifles.
"Murder Mountain," Netflix
"Murder Mountain" is where true crime and the dark side of cannabis culture meet. Roughly 60% of America's weed comes from Northern California's Humboldt County — a place where more people go missing than anywhere else in the state. "Have You Seen Me?" and "Missing" posters are plastered all over the central town, Alderpoint, which is surrounded by dense forests and rocky peaks, an ideal terrain for "disappearing" people.
It's prevalent enough that the slope on which Alderpoint sits is referred to as "Murder Mountain," which is largely known as a hub for seasonal marijuana farm workers. In this six-episode docuseries director Joshua Zeman takes a deep dive into how precarious the transient environment is for so-called "trimmigrants," like 29-year-old Garret Rodriguez, a surfer from San Diego who traveled north to participate in the green rush and earn money for a Mexico beach shack.
In 2013, Rodriguez stopped responding to calls from his father, who then reports his son missing. However, the sheriff's department is overwhelmed with missing persons and murder cases, and Rodrguez's disappearance goes unsolved as police allegedly dismiss him as a "loser" and "drug dealer." One townsperson summed up the local government's opinion on the local marijujana growers as such: "Let them kill each other."
Part murder mystery, part indictment of how America's law enforcement has adapted (or not) to marijuana legalization, "Murder Mountain" is worth the six-hour binge.
"Weed the People," Netflix
A common thread in anti-drug PSAs and high school D.A.R.E presentation is the idea that marijuana is a "gateway drug." In "Weed the People," director Abby Epstein carefully dismantles that argument with the help of physicians and weed advocates and also turns her lens on how Big Pharma has allegedly pushed for marijuana prohibition for over 80 years.
She dives headfirst into the controversial world of parents seeking medical marijuana for their children with cancer and other serious illnesses because of its role as a muscle relaxant and ability to bolster appetite. As Bonni Goldstein, a pediatrician and medical marijuana treatment specialist, puts it, "To a family that's suffering, it feels like a miracle. It's really just science. It's not fairy dust and it's not voodoo. There are chemicals in the plant that work just like any other drug."
"Weed the People" also spotlights studies that show how marijuana-derived cannabinoids have killed some cancer cells in test tubes. However, human trials largely aren't on the table and as a result, science lags behind the copious anecdotal evidence of marijuana's efficacy. As such, parents of terminally ill children who are desperately searching for some kind of hope are beginning to advocate for increased research and regulation for marijuana as a viable treatment.
This is an informative, bittersweet documentary that is deeply human.
"Rolling Papers," Paid Video on Demand
As a journalist, "Rolling Papers" is one of my personal favorite documentaries on this list because it gives a super illuminating portrait of how the "Denver Post" had to adapt as a publication once marijuana became recreationally legalized in Colorado. Under "pot editor" Ricardo Baco, the paper has to navigate how to cover the topic in a way that will get people to take it seriously. In many ways, it's like the early days of Big Food Media.
You've got your critics, like former "budtender" Jake Browne who casually remarks with the confidence of a sommelier that a certain strain has a "big nose of pine, a little bit of rubber and some lemon as well." There are your columnists, like Brittany Driver, who writes about pot and parenting — a contentious topic that has her worried about increased scrutiny from Child Protective Services. There are investigative journalists, like Eric Gorski, who looks into how the lack of regulations behind edible potency can affect consumers.
The documentary — which was previously on Netflix and can now be rented for $1.99 on YouTube — has some occasional pacing lags, but it's a fun newsroom documentary that deftly captures the enthusiasm for a new beat amid struggles for newspapers to stay in print.
Last night I watched the sixth and final episode of Adam Curtis's CAN'T GET YOU OUT OF MY HEAD (BBC, 2021). It sure packed a punch as did every episode.
I'm sooooooooooooo thankful I'm not living in China or Russia!! It would be absolute hell being an average or poor citizen in either of those countries - gadzooks!
Poor things.
It's available for free in the UK on the BBC's streaming website (and presumably also to anyone with a good vpn).
It's also on youtube, I hear.
Thanks for the tip, cinesmith. I'll be checking out The Century of the Self (2002) before too long.
They Shall Not Grow Old (2018) Peter Jackson - I'd been waiting to catch up with this for so long. Well worth it.
My Octopus Teacher (2021) Philippa Echrlich, James Reed - It just won the Oscar last night so take that as a sign that it doesn't suck. Kinda mesmerizing.
Industrial Accident: The Story of Wax Trax Records (2017) Julia Nash - I was born and raised in Chicago so I'm probably biased. A rare if not unheard practice where a record shop decides to become a label too. A very short lived experiment before it imploded.
Grey Gardens (1976) Maysles Brothers - A re-watch for me but it seemed to add a whole new level of understanding once you read about the back story. It's kind of a miracle these ladies lasted as long as they did.
No End In Sight (2007) Charles Ferguson - After watching 'The Looming Tower' I wanted to see/hear what Ambassador Barbara Bodine had to say.
Someone Up there Likes Me (2019) Mike Figgis - Always had a sweet spot for Ronnie Wood. Loved his paintings, etc. Had no clue about his addictions but as a Rolling Stone it's more or less a miracle that they're all still alive?! (Minus, Brian Jones that is) Also, think he's nuts pulling a Tony Randall. He had twins at age 69. They'll be lucky if he's still kicking before they go to high school.
A doc that means well, presents important ideas about an urgent matter, but later resorts to a travelogue instead.
Jack Lemmon: America’s Everyman (Gene Feldman, 1996) 7/10
Legendary actor and a true everyman. Always enjoy watching a film starring Jack Lemmon. This is a brief TV doc about his career.
Clint Eastwood: The Man from Malpaso (Gene Feldman, 1994) 6/10
Another one of TV docs series about actors. I think Clint deserves at least a bit more focused and nuanced look at his career. He's done so much and, I guess, this format is too narrow to give a broad outlook on his work. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed being reminded about many great films he starred and directed.
Notturno (Gianfranco Rosi, 2020) 6/10
A breathtakingly beautiful and serene documentary. I should have seen it on the big screen to fully appreciate the effort. Watching it at home, I was more drawn towards the story and its presentation, or lack thereof, was certainly felt. Regardless, I'm very curious about Rosi's other films.
I watched the first episode of Curtis's Century of the Self (2002) last month and will get back to watching more of that this month. Curtis had very much found his groove already by the time he made this, because it has a very similar vibe to his most recent series, Can't Get You out of My Head (2021).
I've watched a few docs since I last posted here.
The New Romantics: A Fine Romance (Walker, 2001) 7/10on youtube Being in the World (Ruspoli, 2010) 7 The Stonewall Uprising (PBS American Experience, Davis, Heilbroner, 2010) 7 Boo Hoo (Munro, 1975) 7 a nice short about an old retiree who's a graveyard attendant on the webhttps://www.nfb.ca/film/boo-hoo/ Visions of Light (Glassman, McCarthy, Samuels, 1992) 7 A history of lighting in motion pictures
21 Years: Richard Linklater (Dunaway, Wood, 2014) 6.5 Cracked Actor (Yentob, 1975) 6.5
Ballerina Boys (PBS American Masters, Gazit, Barylick, 2020) 6 William Eggleston - Photographer (Holzemer, 2008) 6
The Painter and the Thief (Benjamin Ree, 2020) 6/10
Very engaging subject matter, only slightly let down by director who evidently lacks confidence.
Swimming Out Till the Sea Turns Blue (Jia Zhangke, 2020) 8/10
Another great doc by maestro Jia Zhangke. I may not be a target audience for this topic. Nevertheless, it was great to watch another film from Jia. Can't wait for his next feature film.
Who's Out There? (Robert Drew, 1975) 6/10
Short NASA doc about the possibilities of extraterrestrial life, narrated by Orson Welles.
Tokyo Phoenix (Olivier Julien, 2017) 7/10
TV doc about the rise of modern Japan. Informative and filled with breathtaking images of the changes that took place in Japan and its capital city.
Among the best documentaries I've seen in a while. More observant than judgmental, yet it gives a wide array of things to consider and provides sincere emotional attachment to its subjects.
Koko: A Talking Gorilla (Barbet Schroeder, 1978) 6/10
This doc provided a decent insight into the life of Koko. I wish it was a bit more elaborate on the scientific studies of the large apes.
Some Kind of Heaven (Lance Oppenheim, 2020) 8/10 and its short companion piece The Paradise Next Door (Lance Oppenheim, 2021) 7/10
A brilliant doc and a true voyeuristic glimpse into the lives of the retirees at The Villages. I'd love to watch more about this community, because there are plenty of colorful characters out there.
Two Gods (Zeshawn Ali, 2020) 7/10
Calm and assured documentary about Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in Newark, NJ.
Closed for Storm (Jake Williams, 2020) 5/10
While similar in style to Jasper Mall (2020), this documentary doesn't reach the heights of fulfilled accomplishment as Jasper Mall did. Closed for Storm does a fine job at presenting how the Six Flags New Orleans park started, but fails to delve deeper into the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
km has a relatively new feature called "text template" (reddish "+" → "tools" → "text template").
one can somehow or other filter films (f.e. seen + 2021 + documentary) then go to "text template" and choose a "format": title (year), title (director, year), director — (title, year), and ultimately/eventually select "options": numbered, km link, duration, imdb link.
all this generates a list/text one can copy by a single click.
