I don't know why I haven't looked through this thread before. Pretty much all I watch is documentaries!

I definitely want to promote my favorite documentary, "Forks over knives". It is about the severe health dangers of a meat and dairy based diet, over a plant based diet.

This documentary created a significant change in what I eartafter having colon cancer.

(This doc was already recommended on page one of this thread)

It was always in the back of my mind to watch this after I read your post. I kept thinking, "What do I want to watch a movie about tickling for?"

I figured if you found it interesting, I would.

I did.

It was bizzaro fascinating.

Thanks for the tip!

Blair Witch Project

I was reading headlines news, a few minutes ago, and came across the ongoing investigation and pending lawsuits, years long battle, to expose an uber-wealthy tycoon who killed his first wife (and others), was living in disquise as an hearing impaired woman down in Texas, and is currently jailed in southern California.

I'm going to see my bff on Friday, so I'm going to see if she will dvr this HBO documentary.

Here's the link to the headline news article:

The film chronicles Burt's life as a photographer, beekeeper, and brand spokesman, following his complicated relationship with the company, his fans, and the world around him. Exposing the collision between business and personal values, "Burt's Buzz" is a compelling and fascinating portrait of this highly idiosyncratic pioneer, and a revealing study of what it means to be a living icon.

Sometimes documentaries haunt you with unsettling feelings. This was one of those.

Thanks for posting about this documentary, Kobi.
I'm going to add it to my "gotta see" list.
