"A classic direct-cinema documentary drama made with ordinary people, it demonstrated for me, early on, that even without celebrities documentaries can be as compelling as any fiction film."

Holy documentaries Batman! Starring Adam West is a really fun glimpse under the cowl and into the life of the amazing actor, father, and just all around witty and wonderful man Adam West.

"The people, the love of theater, the red room at Christmas, the terror of Bishop Vergerus, the mystery of Ismael. And the documentaries! Seeing Bergman quietly direct and set blocking: a master class."

"When I'm looking to be inspired I… go dancing or I watch a documentary (just watched Somm and Jiro Dreams of Sushi); I live for documentaries. I sometimes will also read an amazing book."

"Great documentaries happen when the filmmaker is lucky enough to be there at the rare moment in time when things are changing. Monterey Pop captures the music but also that innocent moment in the sixties."

This is a really cool textbook! If you want a more in depth look into broadcasting, or if you're in a broadcast media class, this will help out! Also, to supplement, you can watch the CNN documentaries series: The Sixties, The Seventies, and The Eighties.
