    Super-Size Me
    Fahrenheit 9/11 (even though i didn't enjoy it half as much as 'Bowling For Columbine' - it's worth a nomination!)

    Fog of War, if even only for the Philip Glass score.

    Farenheit 9/11 - Haven't seen that many documentaries this year but this sometimes uneven film does deserve a nomination at least.

    Capturing The Friedmans

    Even though it actually made me a little uneasy watching it was still excellent.

    Super Size Me

    I found Capturing The Friedmans very unentertaining and empty and I enjoyed Super Size Me more than Fahrenheit 9/11 although it was excellent.

    Capturing the Friedmans, but I have seen very few documentaries this year.
    I found La Pelota Vasca impossible to sit through, didn't explain anythign to the outsider and didn't cover much new ground for the initiated. But I digress.
