Documentaries
According to the side bar, I have watched 35 documentaries since this all began. I don't believe that is an accurate portrayal of how many I have actually watched because I sometimes forget to add them after I watch them. I also have a hard time determining what is a documentary and what isn't. Is a 30 minute documentary a documentary? What if it has been on TV? Are reality TV shows documentaries?
Any which way, I love documentaries. I love social ones, political ones, scientific ones, and bizarre ones. Below is a list of some great documentaries. Check them out if you have a chance:
1) Stevie- One of the saddest and most disturbing movies I have ever seen. Not a feel good movie at all. Not recommended to any one in the Big Brother and Big Sister organization.
2) This Film is Not Yet Rated- A look into the film rating system. It is full of humor and very smart. Shows the hypocrisy in the American film rating system.
3) Helvetica- All about the font.
4) Very Young Girls- Many young women are forced into prostitution. This film documents girls trying to get out and their stories in New York.
5) Bigger, Stronger, Faster- Steroids. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
That's five. Not necessarily my favorites of all time, but some solid, good films. Check them out.

I haven't seen Helvetica or Very Young Girls, but I've seen the others and they are great.
I see "Fade to Black" isn't on this list! Have you watched it yet? Maybe you haven't, or maybe you have and didn't think it was list-worthy.
