PARADISE LOST by Berlinger & Sinofsky.
i’d suggest all documentary made by werner herzog, so far i’ve seen la soufrier, encounters at the end of the wolrd and grizzly man, and all of them belongs to my favorites, i prefer herzog’s documentary than his fiction films.,
and i seconded “my winnipeg”, surely one of the coolest movie ever
If you like “Gimme Shelter” you might like “The Kids are Alright” which follows The Who up until 1979. My favorite rock and roll movie.
If you like Bukowski (or crazy old drunk men in general) I would suggest “Born Into This.”
If you’re gonna’ get into Herzog I would say that “Lessons of Darkness” is the best of his that I’ve seen. Amazing film.

lately i’ve been really wanted to watch docs but at the moment i’m having trouble finding an interesting one. The last docs i seen were “gimme shelter”, “grey gardens”, “the cove”, and “the thin blue line” which were all great docs. So if anyone can give me some good titles and somewhat of the styles that i mentioned that would be great.
thanks
