Wiseman is obviously the God. i need to catch up on his more modern stuff but i can say that Welfare and Juvenile Court are masterpieces, Titticut Follies is obviously essential (and has now been made into a ballet?!), and Boxing Gym is the best documentary ever made about a boxing gym. obligatory shout out to the Up Series, a must-see. here, have an obscure documentary about Seattle homeless street kids from the 80's. a harrowing but gripping watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lTQgfXb87k music documentaries? gotta mention Stop Making Sense after Jonathan Demme's sad passing. i also like Decline of Western Civilization and Instrument. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JccW-mLdNe0 Palpek posted:I love the Polish school of documentary making where it's more about careful observation, direction and editing rather than the subject matter being extraordinary. Actually almost always the opposite is true where the film is about something completely mundane. Every Polish film maker starts with documentaries at school (which is why you can later see it influencing their feature films), it's a genre in itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66CbSfuyxTU HP Hovercraft fucked around with this message at 22:49 on May 1, 2017 |
