"Lex" and others suggested I see
http://www.netflix.com/MovieDisplay?movieid=60027982&trkid=189530&strkid=539500584_0_0&hnjr=5">"The Times of Harvey Milk" and after just finishing it, it is easy to understand why. Someone posted that tears were inevitable, and after the shooting I thought not: rage. But during the candle light vigil, well, yeah. Then rage again.
What brought up the subject was the

And after watching to documentary, the same thing still pisses me off: the propaganda. If this documentary were released under the title "The Twinkie Defense" it would probably find a whole new life and open a whole new set of eyes. White is the stereotypical freeper, though of course not all freepers equal White. But Hannity, Savage and especially Coulter encouraging the poisoning of SCOTUS sure fit fit the bill.
It's a powerful documentary that opened my eyes to the gay rights struggle. Maybe there is a better one that would accomplish this purpose, I don't know. If so, maybe someone will post the title.
There are a wide variety of "special interests" here. You know, your #1 driving passion. Is there a documentary that best argues, explains or helps the viewer understand what your "special interest" is? I want to try to understand it through your eyes if there is a documentary that could help do that, and it would make it easier to understand your posts. There are likely others who might want to do the same.
Maybe after there is enough for a list of each "special interest" documentaries someone can post them into a poll to find a consensus on which one will be
the best for that "special interest."
