I never appreciated documentaries growing up as a child. However over the years I'm developing a very fond love for them. I want to share with my cinemaniacs some documentaries that rock. These movies are not in any particular order.
Farenheit 911
This is one of the most shocking documentaries that I’ve seen in reference to the whole September 11 incident. Michael Moore did an outstanding job on this movie
When the Levees Broke
Spike Lee did a phenomenal job on this documentary about Hurricane Katrina. Everyone should see this movie.
The War on Drugs
This documentary covers the war on drugs from the time that President Nixon gave the charge till the late nineties early 2000’s. This movie is really deep with some very disturbing statistics and confessions from top DEA agents on the issue.
Cocaine Cowboys
Is a documentary covers big time drug trafficking, drug cartels in Miami and the bloody feuds it caused. I recommend watching this movie first before watching the war on drugs. They go hand and hand but you need to see both viewpoints.
Fog City Mavericks
This movie is great because it showcases some of the greatest directors of our time along with their craftsmanship. Any real cinemaniac or writer really needs to view this documentary it is very enlightening.
Standing in the Shadows of Motown
This movie covers the work of the uncanny funk brothers who played on many of the biggest Motown hits that your parents grew up on and we are familiar with. This documentary definitely something to see because it brings to life those familiar hits along with live performances with modern R&B artists putting their spin on the tune.
When We Were Kings
This documentary covers the famous boxing match between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman in Zaire, Africa it is a great film.
