Where to Invade Next – Michael Moore
Though
Moore is a controversial figure and biased towards the left wing of government
in his movies this film takes a approach of finding the best ideas in the world
and bringing them back to the united states. We could all learn something from
this movie and the variety of countries and their cultures examined by Moore
and his team, political beliefs aside.
The Other One: The Long Strange Trip of Bob Weir – Mike
Fleiss
Examines
the life of The Grateful Dead Musician Bob Weir and paints a colourful picture
of counterculture in the 1960 and beyond. Interesting characters appear
including famous authors, philosophers, musicians, and more. A must watch for
all Rock’n’Roll fans.
Red Army – Gabe Polsky
A history
of hockey in the Soviet Union and how it’s stars eventually broke out into the
NHL despite government attempts to stop them. Great for learning about another
great hockey nation and it’s controversial history.
Best of Enemies – Robert Gordon, Morgan Neville
Follows
the rivalry between two intellectuals Gore Vidal and William F Buckley Jr.
Debates, lawsuits, articles, and arguments for the soul for America are
featured as these two giants clash throughout their lives. If you are
interested in debate or politics this is a classic film.
