Documentary Films - Let's Discuss
Been into a lot of non-fiction filmmaking lately, and want to know your opinions on it. What style of filmmaking do you prefer, who are your favorite filmmakers, what are your favorite documentaries, etc.
Despite my 5 film Errol Morris marathon, one film from Wiseman was enough to make him instantly superior, but on the other hand I love Morris' later style, the one man-one interview approach of Fog of War and Mr. Death.
However truthful he may be, I find Michael Moore's films instantly appealing both in terms of their presentation, and in content (I hate Bush too).
On the other hand I got to watch Ken Burns' Civil War which is informative and damn well made, but hardly the type of observational or personal filmmaking style of Morris or Wiseman.
So weigh in on docs, and feel free to give your recommendations, always looking for something good to watch.
