"This is a very real film about what it means to ‘keep it real’."

By Errol Morris, commissioned by IBM

but if people already think it's fake, not sure they'll believe him

sounds like a fascinating non-narrative documentary

takedown of "Waiting for Superman" and its endorsement of charter schools

A. O. Scott considers the heterogeneity of the genre that contains "Catfish" as well as "Waiting for Superman" as well as "Jackass 3D". That's one of the things I love about documentary.

This doc was at the fest but I had a feeling it would get a wide release so I skipped it. Sounds interesting. Not sure how I feel about charter schools though.

It's a strange time when a boot company covers an issue better than any media source. A three part doc where Johnny Knoxville tours some sites in Detroit, showing the hopeful creative development going on as well as the fabulous ruins.

I'd really like to see this.
