Unlawful killing. New Order Story
"When the FA Banned Women" was on BBC4 recently. Claire Balding (who is, in my opinion, one of the best and most intelligent of contemporary sports journalists) on the rise and fall of women's football during and immediately after the First World War. A real eye-opener on the subject of a real injustice.
I had no idea.
Ive watched quite a few over the last couple days.
'among the believers'. Interviews and on site filming with extremists in islamabad. Interesting look at the situation from different perspectives with some unbelievable views.
'el fin De ETA'. Interesting look at the efforts to bring their murdering to an end.
'the wolfpack', Is bizarre story. It features a group of film obsessed kids in New York who were basicaly imprisoned by their dad. Access to leave varied from 0 - 7 times per year and was forbidden on their own.
'the truth about alcohol'. A lot of it basicaly recovered common knowledge. Its made me consider my habits though.
Bumping this thread to see if anybody has some recommendations for documentaries. Im a sucker for good conspiracy documentaries but like anything thats a bit dark and messed up.
Good one on Netflix just now about Death Row inmates. I am killer I think it’s called
I watched one a while ago on Netflix about the flat earth society. It’s utterly insane, but it’s entertaining watching these people trying to justify their madness.
Last two I have watched are Bob Lazar, about some whistleblower from area 51, a bit repetitive but fascinating at the same time, then watched wild wild country, really enjoyed it, some guru convinces thousands of people to join his not so quite religious cult, crazy story of deception, egos and strange going ons
Last one could actually be a documentary about hearts
The two guys who spent tens of thousands of dollars on lasers to prove there was no curvature on the sea bed where my favourites.
Utterly deluded and determined to waste even more money to prove the results of their own experiment were wrong. Fools and their money.
Not sure if this counts as a documentary but I’ve been watching a few of the James English podcasts on his YouTube channel.
Perhaps not to everyone’s liking but having watched those focussing on Paul Ferris, Frank McAvennie, Andy Goram and the Luke Mitchell case I’m glad I put my initial reservations to the side.
6 part series was on The truth behind the moon landings. Discussing if moon landing was faked.
