I prefer a documentaries of a summer blockbuster.
That is true. My Netflix queue is plagued them. I am so absorbed by the
subjects of documentaries because, yes, they are real people. Sometimes
documentaries can be as entertaining as a comedy, or just as
heartbreaking as a drama. The best part of watching a documentary, it's
when you think to yourself, "Man, I can not believe that really
happened." Here is the first part of documentaries to check when you
feel something other than an hour and a half of Hollywood fluff:
Beyond the Mat (2000)
Admittedly
I'm not a wrestling fan. I've always seen struggling just a sport where
guys FALSE disguise, pretending to be angry, then pretend to shoot each
other living tar. The only reason I saw the doc depends on the one I
saw at the time made WWE look. For the sake of our relationship, I've
seen it. Surprisingly, it held my attention from beginning to end. It
focuses on the wrestlers like Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Terry Funk, and
Mike "humanity" Foley. We see how the fight has significantly hurt them
physically and emotionally; not only hurt them, but their families too.
Ultimately, I was not ready to start watching wrestling on Monday night,
but I started to see the wrestlers that people instead of just defense
dolls in a circle.
Catfish (2010)
In this social media
company we now live, it is not surprising that most people connect and
communicate with people through sites like Facebook and Twitter. Catfish
tells online relationship with a man his brother in a family he met on
Facebook. The family consists of a mother, a singing / dancing /
songwriting eldest daughter, and a young girl who seems to be a prodigy.
His work is surprisingly mature and talented, considering she was only
eight years. The brother soon begin a relationship of sorts with the
elder sister by text, email, talk on the phone and of course, Facebook. A
surprise to deal with this too good to be true family trip comes with
surprising twists.
Crazy Love (2007)
Burt Pisgah and
Linda Rises fell in love in the late U.S.S.R. it was terribly attractive
21 East Bronx; It was a terribly wealthy lawyer who liked to have a
good time. Everything seemed picture perfect until Rises discovered
Pisgah had a wife and children. From there, the story begins to resemble
a story concocted by a writer, a soap opera. Lies are told, threats are
made, and possibly a crime is committed. The less you more about this
"love story", the better. You are in more shocks to the end.
Grey Gardens (1976)
What
is fascinating about this documentary is that this mother and daughter
duo were all time. Edith Bonier Beale (often called Big Edie) and her
daughter with the same name (but called Little Edie) have lots of money
and live comfortably in the Hamptons East. Their home, called Grey
Gardens, was a vacation spot for young Jackie O (she was the niece of
Big Edie and Little Edie's cousin). But when hard times hit two Edie and
the money ran out, they were left in their Grey Gardens mansion with
nothing but memories and a lot of cats running around. The house began
to deteriorate because they do not know how to take care of ourselves.
It was a big scandal back in the mid-U.S.S.R., when it was revealed that
parents Jackie O were poor and barely survive. This documentary is more
than just a study of the dirt they lived in; It's more about the
relationship between mother and daughter and how these two women could
survive their difficulties by relying
on each other.
King of Kong (2008)
Billy
Mitchell. You are shit. You can walk around wearing your American flag
tie with your long dark hair flowing in the wind as much as you want.
You're still a sturdy walking in my eyes. For those who saw the King of
Kong, I hope you feel my hate. For those who have not, you should see it
as soon as possible. This story of the captivating property revolves
around the old Donkey Kong arcade and the struggle between the two men
who want to hold the world record machine. One is Billy Mitchell. He is
the defending champion. He also sells hot sauce and has a string of hot
wings restaurants. It is a real sausage. The most root man, however, is
the underdog Steve Weber. He is a man all around good and decent. It has
never been the best at something, despite being good enough for many
things such as baseball, drums, etc. After buying an arcade Donkey Kong,
he realizes that he has a talent for the game. strives to beat Billy on
the Guinness World Record. Even if you're not a fan of video games, you
will be touched by the King of Kong.
Night (2006)
Writer
/ director Troy Duffy was a mystery when it came to the Hollywood scene
after the cult classic silver The Boon dock Saints. Duffy was a
bartender when he wrote a script that opened the doors for him. Even
Harvey Weinstein at Miramax Pictures has on interest. Weinstein wanted
to finance the film and help Duffy become the greatest writer / director
Quentin Tarantino or Kevin Smith since. Weinstein bought Duffy scenario
for $ 300,000, giving him a budget of $ 15 million for the film, and
allowed to have final cut Duffy. This is unheard of in Hollywood.
Duffy's ego, however, came in the way of everything. Night Capture how
he managed to alienate everyone around him because of his behavior and,
ultimately, damage to his reputation in Hollywood.
Paradise Lost: The Murders at Robin Hill child Woods (1996) / Paradise Lost 2: Revelations (2001)
In
1993, three young boys murdered and mutilated in West Memphis, Arkansas
Creek. Three outcasts of local teens have been cited for the crime and
killed the three boys in some sort of satanic ritual. Interviews with
the victims' families are painful, but equally painful are the
interviews with the accused and their families. The three teenagers
(dubbed the West Memphis Three) say they are innocent and are an easy
target because they wear dark clothes, is not religious, and listen to
bands like Metallica. The first documentary, Paradise Lost: The Child
Murders at Robin Hood Woods follows the trial while interviewing those
whose lives have changed because of these murders. Later, Paradise Lost
2: Revelations plays catch-up with every four years after the trial.
Whether you believe the West Memphis Three are innocent or guilty, you
will leave these documentaries both angered and saddened by the
collective loss felt by all.
Super Size Me (2004)
Of
course, the document Morgan Spurlock valid points in this documentary in
which he eats only McDonald's for 30 days. If you eat fast food every
day, you'll probably get fat and die earlier than you should. Portion
sizes have got way out of control. Exercise is also important when
trying to keep a fit body. Advertisers brainwashing our children with
the help of kid-friendly mascots for sale greasy fast food. That is
true. But you know what's true? Every time I watch Super Size Me, I'm
hungry for some McDonalds. And maybe once I got off the doc to get
McDonalds. Only once, however. Do not judge!
Trekkers (1999)
Fans
of Star Trek are examined in this highly entertaining documentary. Some
just dress up for conventions, while others wear their love for the
show in their everyday lives, or even their careers. They show their
love for everything related to Star Trek the world to see and they are a
proud people. Admittedly, I laughed the entire documentary, but mostly
seems really happy to be interviewed. Are they just a bunch of mavericks
who are wrong in a happy existence with Star Trek? Or are they
something that the rest of us have not yet realized? Only time (and
possibly space) will tell. If you happen to watch Trekkers, there is a
Although not as good as the first, some of the original Trekkers are
revisited and talk about how their lives have changed since the first
movie sequel called Trekkers 2.
