Here's a great music documentary: Gimme Shelter Google Video Here's the Criterion Collection's synopsis: "Called the greatest rock film ever made, this landmark documentary follows the Rolling Stones on their notorious 1969 U.S. tour. When three hundred thousand members of the Love Generation collided with a few dozen Hells Angels at San Francisco’s Altamont Speedway, Direct Cinema pioneers David and Albert Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin were there to immortalize on film the bloody slash that transformed a decade’s dreams into disillusionment." It's a great watch for anyone who likes or is unfamiliar with the Stones, and for anyone interested in Altamont / the end of the 1960's.

Helvete posted:Cane Toads: An Unnatural History: a lighthearted and quite hilarious late-80s film about the ecological terror brought upon Australia by an introduced species of toad for the purpose of controlling pests in sugar cane fields. Needless to say, it didn't work as planned. I loved this. It's pretty short, too. Less than an hour. I watched that in an Environmental Science class last year, and it's pretty hilarious. Thanks for the link.
