What's the best documentary you've seen?

Just watched the defiant ones on Netflix - very interesting.

I'd never heard of Jimmy Iovine, which is strange in itself because he is literally Mr Music Industry by the looks of things!

Recently watched The Jinx- the life and deaths of Robert Durst. There's a "Making a murderer" vibe off it.

Would highly recommend Evil Genius on Netflix

Loved the jinx and thought it was way better than making a murderer!

After two episodes of A Dangerous Dynasty: House of Assad, I think it's up there with the best I've seen. Bashar al-Assad is fascinating because he's so normal; the documentary has covered his early years, so we're yet to see how a mild-mannered eye doctor turns in to the bogeyman of the CNN headlines.

Assassination of Indira Gandhi former Indian prime minister of India. Very interesting and then the follow on of her son's assassination years later post his role as prime minister. Really interesting stuff on India's history

I've always been a fan of BBC's "The Great War" groundbreaking for its time in the early 60's.

Just watching a documentary made from the unshown interviews of that series done as part of the BBC's Rememberance series.
It is excellent, Melvin Bragg narrating and some really good interviews.

Called "I was there: The Great War.

Documentaries about things that don't exist?

Each to their own I suppose!

Ahuh. It caught my interest. Specially when there'll be a part that they can't prove that there's something.
