The Truth's Undeniable Liberal Bias.......

A friend of mine is having some people he works with over this weekend to talk politics and watch some docs. These are people who had been largely apolitical, but have been pushed over the edge by the recent actions by Rick Snyder, along with the goings-on in Wisconsin, Florida et all.

Anyway, he borrowed a few of my DVDs for this Leftist Re-Education Film Festival :). And it got me thinking: What's the essential Lefty viewing list? Here's what I came up with.



1. SiCKO
2. Inside Job
3. Fahrenheit 9/11
4. The Corporation
5. An Inconvenient Truth
5. Capitalism: A Love Story
6. End of Suburbia
7. The Big One
8. Sir No Sir!
9. Food Inc.
10. Roger & Me


What other docs would you include?

1. Excellent list
I have all of them except "The Big One" which I've never heard of :)

The only other addition I can think of, especially considering the issues that are interesting your friends, is "The Shock Doctrine".

2. The Big One is one of Michael Moore's earlier movies.....
The Big One is a movie filmed in 1996—and released in 1998 by Miramax Films—by Michael Moore during his promotion tour around the United States for his book Downsize This!. Through the 47 towns he visits, Moore discovers and describes American economic failings and the fear of unemployment of the American workers.
