It was my idea to get rid of our Dish and because Drew never actually figured out how to work it he was far from opposed.
When he called the Dish to cancel it at the end of our contract, I guess it's a requirement that they ask why.
Drew's PC response: We want to read more.
Dish Lady: Well that's a very lofty goal but most people find that to be difficult.
That has absolutely cracked me up.
As difficult as it may be, I think we will make it.
Onto the point of the story: My summer classes end in two weeks and then I'll be blessed with free time to
The Last Mountain is about MTR in Appalachia. Disclaimer: If you support it, this documentary isn't for you.
The Color of Fear....which I can't find online but maybe your public library has it.
It may be one of the most powerful documentaries I've seen, it is about a group of men and their struggles with people of other races. It is uncomfortable to watch but honest and moving.
When the Levees Broke... Katrina. I cried from beginning to end and it's a long-ass documentary.
Both of the next two are made by Appalshop which you can rest assured will always do a good job.
Stranger With a Camera
Whippin' the Devil
Born Into Brothels follows children born into the red-light district in Calcutta. They are given the opportunity to take pictures and learn the trade of photography.
Waiting for Superman I have some issues with the way this documentary portrays teachers but I like the overall theme that the system is broken. I don't support the charter school movement but I do support informing people of the injustices in the current education system.
So that's my limited list. I'm looking for deep cuts. I have a whole summer ahead of me people. My interests vary widely so don't hesitate to give me your suggestions.
