Spoiler I really dont like how they went out of their way to say Eddy's dad and parenting style WASNT what drove him to suicide, yet still made strong hints at it. That felt shitty to me. I also saw they're making this into a feature film.
When they first showed his dad I laughed my ass off and couldn’t help but think of the old man with a boner from Road Trip Spoiler Felt bad for him after because you know he had to have felt responsible. And he hinted at it... he definitely beat Eddy. I don’t think it was ALL his parenting. Little column A and little column B on nature Vs nurture there If I were adopted and Jewish and grew up within 50 miles of NYC in that time period I’d be going crazy thinking about this movie
Saw that the production company for 3IS is the same one that did The Imposter. Makes sense and sorta similar. Also did a movie called Americans animals. Anyone seen this? Looks like it could be good
Came across this one on my Amazon. Given the fact that the second rally was extremely lackluster. It's interesting to look back on what happened in Charlottesville and the different layers to the situation.
Intent To Destroy Incredible stuff. It follows the production of a movie (flopped) about the Armenian Genocide and the effort by the Turkish government to quash any conversation that it happened. I knew Turkey has denied it but the level that they go to maintain their denial is absurd.
Watched Quincy Jones documentary on Netflix yesterday. Pretty good. Knew he did a lot in music but was still suprised at the entirety of his impact. Also learned that the dude really liked the white womens
There's a CSNY doc on amazon... came away liking all of them a lot less. I also found it funny that Nash came from The Hollies, but wasn't even a part of their best song , Long Cool Woman, as he left the band before they recorded that song. The guy who wrote it left the Hollies because he was jealous of Nash's success, but scurried the fuck back when Long Cool Woman became a hit.
Wilid Wild Country is unreal. I have finished 5 of the 6 episodes. I had no idea this existed. So many unlikeable people in this doc.
No doubt. I've always been on the fence about deleting my facebook (Especially after downloading the data file they have on me). But this documentary just proves over and over again how full of shit the majority of them are. Also, Naomi Gleit is a complete twat.
I got rid of mine. Mostly because I had gotten tired of reading insane political arguments between townies and being spammed with MLM pitches. I can see baby pictures elsewhere if I want to.
If you go into settings. It's under "Your Facebook Information" and the very last one is "Download Your Information".
My first bit of fake news was back in 2009/10ish. When this dude from my HS shared a "FREE OBAMA GAS" link. He wasn't the brightest individual in HS and we got into in the comment section.
I've seen a lot of these things where the people were amazing with animals, but this guy, I just, I can't imagine this is a sustainable way to do this kind of work.
anybody watching The Innocent One on netflix? After two episodes I'm convinced they'll never figure out which of these retards actually did it because they find themselves inundated with about a dozen incompetent dicks who can't help but shit/incriminate themselves. Or, to say it more simply, it's set in Oklahoma. Unlike other true crime pieces, I couldn't care less who they put to death just get rid of some of them. Is it ok to be pro death penalty in some states and not in the majority of them?
In a world increasingly divided on politics, I think it is great you are able to have a nuanced view on a polarizing topic.
help my friend finish his documentary about a photographer who worked as a janitor at a border patrol station and tells the story of migrants through the trash he collected. it looks super cool.
Watched this recently, and I agree, it was excellent. For anyone interested, it follows rock climber Tommy Caldwell and his climbing partner Kevin Jorgeson as they climb the Dawn Wall (obviously) in Yosemite.
What’s up with that Doc about Surving R.Kelly? Haven’t seen it but I guess everyone is talking about it?
you about summed it up. i think it was a multi-part thingy. he's a piece of shit. you'll get the gist if you listen to the behind the bastars pod.
It was really good doc, but hard to watch. it's one of those things that is so frustrating to watch to see what's been allowed to go on for so long.
Struggle: The Life and Lost Art of Szukalski that recently came out on netflix was pretty good. Produced by Leo DiCaprio.
Still not sure why I love that documentary so much, but it remains one of my favs. Now I want to watch a music doc, it's either that again, or the Michael Jackson one. ETA: It's Oasis, I started "This Is It" but no. Not right now.
RalfBully what did you think? I watched it again, and am now on a full fledged rockumentary kick. Next up: Followed by: Will take most other suggestions on musical "rise to fame" documentaries. I'm a sucker for them. Don't love the "Mercury Rising" documentary for some reason though. I've started it twice now, but just can't get into it.
Muscle Shoals is awesome. Huge fan of that. Dig is also great. I dont really care about the bands in Dig but its such a fascinating story about one lunatic
