Preferably on streaming!

the aristocrats is still my favourite documentary ever, not sure if it's on streaming though

(or the kind of answer you're looking for tbh)

Re: What are your favorite documentaries?

I had never heard of this until today, when my friend sent me Gottfried's performance of the joke. I'm assuming you're talking about the 2005 film? Are you...the friend in question???

Either way, so odd seeing this twice in my day!

oh gosh I still sometimes think about the Billy the Mime version of the joke...

i just read this as aristocats and was confused for a second.

Don't know if they are on streaming, but Rich Hall's documentaries about American culture were always fun.

I mostly watch music documentaries - Some Kind of Monster is a classic in the "messy warts and all" doc genre, obviously, though I have no idea if/where that's streaming since I have it on DVD lol. The SWANS documentary, Where Does a Body End?, is similar in that it includes a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff that isn't the most flattering -vthat one's on Tubi, so free.

Also WATCH HOLY HELL. Essentially, a guy who was a cult member for decades was asked by the cult leader to film stuff for propaganda videos. He left the cult, took the footage with him, and made a documentary that's both about the cult itself and his and other ex-members' experiences leaving it. It's on Peacock.

The Orange Years: The Nickelodeon Story - on Hulu
Tower (2016) - 1966 shootings at the University of Texas at Austin - on Amazon Prime Video with Amc Plus add-on

Tower is damn compelling stuff and really set a good example for how to address events like that shooting in film.

ayrt

It is. It's just such a different way of presenting things that it has a profound impact, I think.

Navalny on HBOMax is a wild ride and I really enjoy it. It's about a Russian opposition leader and how he's persecuted.

The BBC Historic Farm Series is 4 seasons of tv but it's also a great documentary of Historic Farm Life.

'What Happened, Brittany Murphy?' also deserves a rec too. I saw it and thought, "What DID happen to Brittany Murphy? Haven't seen anything from her in a while." Long story short, it's very very sad.

Murder Maps is really good.

Anything with David Attenborough.

Re: What are your favorite documentaries?

[greghousesgf]

yes! I love his enthusiasm and his shows are always so well-photographed.

Shirkers (I hope it's still up on Netflix) - a woman reflects on her love for filmmaking and what Singapore was like in the 1990s - early 2000s (IIRC) while she was a teen cinephile with her friends

Probably a favorite doc due to it hitting really close to home and I wasn't expecting it to.
