This is a place where I'd love to hear about the documentaries that moved you emotionally or made you want to look into or study something. Real life is more fascinating than fiction. What should I see?

Anyone seen 'Wild WIld Country' on Netflix? It's about how the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh cult created a new town in rural Oregon during the 1980s and how the locals flipped out. I thought it was excellent since it brings up a lot of conflicting ideas ...

There is a documentary called "Trapped" about how the right has nibbled away the ability for women to be able to get an abortion legally. Some states are down to one or two clinics where a woman can get the procedure and they may have to jump through...

If you haven't already seen it, I highly recommend a wonderful documentary called "The Botany of Desire: A Plant's-Eye View of the World." It's pretty old, but I don''t think it got the attention it deserved when it was released. The book it's based ...

I like "An Honest Liar". It's about a magician who's life mission is to expose all the deception and tricks used by the faith healers, mentalists, and those who claim special powers like telekinesis, telepathy and psychic surgery. He also shows that ...

"The Act of Killing" was disturbing and morally insightful, about individuals who participated in the Indonesian mass killings of 1965–66. It reminds me that we all may be capable of great immorality.

I love food documentaries. I really liked Cooked with Michael Pollan which is available on Netflix. Ugly Delicious with David Chan was also very good.

I recommend "Gasland" on the subject of Fracking - it is poisoning the water and air.

have you seen The Hunting Ground? (on Netflix) in the wake of a difficult few months and esp. in the wake of the soul-crushing Kavanaugh proceedings, someone recommended that I watch this documentary. I'm not gonna lie - it is gritty and hard to ...

Ask Dr. Ruth is running on Hulu. She is an inspiring woman who manages to shine despite her life traumas. Makes one wonder about how some people manage to be so resilient. I suspect it may have to do with a strong base in early life. Watched ...

This has probably been said but Ken Burns' Vietnam series was eye opening and for me deeply moving. Gets both sides of the conflict, perspectives of troops in the field and political situation on the home front. Just amazing. I highly recommend ...

Man on Wire was one of my favorites. It's the story of Philippe Petit's 1974 high-wire walk between the Twin Towers of New York's World Trade Center. Inspiring, knee-tingling and funny, all at the same time.
