I thought The Bridge was an amazing documentary. It was deeply profound in both the extent of pain the victims must have been feeling and the families as well, also, in reality, themselves being victims. Black Fish was a documentary that once seen can never be unseen and one can't go back to the happy place of the fantasy world that Sea World was trying to portray. Both excellant in different ways.

i think number ten is pretty cool. not only is it about male victims of sexual abuse, but Deaf ones; Deaf people have an exponentially high chance of being taken advantage of, especially at a young age, because they cannot easily explain what happened to them (mostly because most law enforcement agents dont know sign language, and many Deaf people do not know how to read or write due to abuse or neglect). i think giving Deaf male sexual abuse victims a voice and a medium to express what happened to them is wonderful

I'm not saying the director of The Bridge is a great guy, but the crew actually had an agreement that they would try to intervene in every instance they could and called the proper people required to prevent their deaths. The problem is that a lot of these people who jumped looked so normal, just walking along before in a span of one minute they hauled themselves over the railing and into the water. No one could have intervened for them in the first place, they would have died anyway. What he did to the families however is horrific, there's no denying that.

Reality must be documented. We should be aware of the fucked up shit around us so we can do something about it. Putting it away and living in a fantasy world where we try to think that sadness is a myth and happiness is what we need to move forward will do us nothing but damage. But we need facts. Not sensationalization.

As a species the absolute last thing we need is more radical Christians. If we repeated the Crusades now it would be a disaster. In the first 3 Crusades they fought with swords, and arrows. Now we have nukes, the dark ages would return only worse, and this time there would be no Renaissance to follow.

I found this doc coincidentally while browsing a local rental shop. R Crumb is my great uncle. I grew up hearing stories about him, being told I drew like he did, and having a markedly different view of Genesis than others in my Communion class thanks to reading the copy of Crumb's illustrated interpretation that he'd sent to Grandma. Side note: Her comment? "Oh, he wrote about the Bible! What a good Catholic boy!" 😂😂 Our whole crew shares seemingly complementary traits of book smarts and flawed social reasoning, creativity and mental irregularity. Even as a member of the family, watching it was an enlightening experience re: how the family deals (or doesn't) w balancing support and independence, compassion and humor, and creativity and practical functionality (poverty playing a MASSIVE role in outcomes for smart, creative, and somewhat unsteady personalities) in their personal and social lives. Even as a fairly observant member of the family, the film succeeded in magnifying those flaws in an uncomfortable, heartbreaking, and revelatory way. Highly recommended.

Wow, I remember hearing about the last story but what was left out was that they were convicted of child sexual assault crimes - I was only told the father killed himself so that his son could use the life insurance to leave prison. Was definitely told to me by child sexual abuse sympathizers. What a wild list.

The Act of Killing really is scary for us Indonesian. But that "G30S/PKI" movie is just much scarier imo. It was a propaganda made by Soeharto (New Order) to legitimize his regime, by spreading hatred towards communism -> it's related to the genocide that happened in the end of 1960s, as told in The Act of Killing. Sadly, even after his regime ended, and the film was confirmed as a huge lie, the hatred and sentiment still exists. How the brainwashing effect on our people minds still remains is what scares me the most.

How utterly refreshing to not be watching some variation on "Top 10 Celebs Who Hate blah blah blah". Love your work +Deburke321 - very interesting topic for a KZfaq list. *I don't know that any documentary could be "controversial"? A documentary's purpose, as well as to educate, inspire, provoke thought and so on, is **_to document_**. Thus, I don't feel like there's any subject matter that is controversial but I understand events or circumstances around a documentary could be. For example not getting permission from a subject, especially a victim, or purposely misleading authorities, committing something illegal or unlawful, etc.*

Number 10 is genuinely interesting not only the title but also the theme! For, it should become a kind of warning not only for V...n along with C..... c..... but also all of us! About number nine, as an Indonesian, I need to confess that both of Joshua Oppenheimer's documentaries (The Act Of Killing and The Look Of Silence) have enriched my knowledge about one of our most miserable histories. By the way, I genuinely love documentaries because "reality" should be published and performed. Truth need to be revealed!!

I hope you’re joking. It’s hard to tell sometimes on the internet. Those are all fictional films done in the “found-footage” format.
