This is a great thread, many interesting "documentaries" around but do you guys fully trust in these? Do you actually believe everything they say? I'm never too trusting and although labeled "documentary" I wouldn't always believe everything they say.

I love Documentaries!

I don't have much time to list favourites at the moment. But here are 2 documentaries I've seen recently that broke my heart.

The first one follows homeless children in Bukharest, very depressing. The second one details the treatment and care of unwanted Bulgarian children, this one is really messed up!

Awesome thread. I see 5 or more documentaries here I will definitely watch. I have two more recommendations.
Oprah's Next Chapter episode where Tony Robbins was on. Powerful stuff. He actually got her and her producer to walk over fire. Use the Putlocker link:

also Capitalism: A Love Story by Michael Moore http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEt7Kssut-o
Seeing household name corporations like Walmart and others cashing in on secret million dollar life insurance policies of their dead employees was like a dark science fiction plot come to life.

Modern Marvels is pretty interesting, and pretty much anything by the BBC. The rest I can think of have already been mentioned already.

Grizzly Man by Werner Herzog is great. It's an analysis of the life of a guy in the States who went to live with bears in the late ninetines/early 2000's.

Wow! Just finished watching this. Gutted. Very edgy documentary. Morbidly fascinating. No matter how you feel about it the feelings are probably strong. Thanks for the recommendation.
