2006 Top 10s (Print Media)

[Chris Knipp]

P.s. I don't think four hours plus is too long for a documentary about one of the most significant events of our times. We can think of it as a Grindhouse for reality buffs. I like long epilogues and good bonus materials. DVD's have too few of them. However, my assessment of When the Levees Broke will have to wait till I have actually seen the film.

What I said was that When the Levees Broke is "brilliant and thorough and well worth your time and effort". It's atop my Favorite Documentaries of 2006

Yes, and unseen, I was seconding that, and -- obviously -- offsetting your off-putting opener, "Watching When The Levees Broke is quite an investment as the original doc is 4 hours long, and there's a long epilogue on the third disc."
