Tooj 17 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 The last episode of Boardwalk was the worst of this series so far as well. Sick of Margaret and this episode was even worse as she took up most of the screen time. Gyp is a class character mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 31195 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Homeland - I found the first season to be a bit of a slow burner. I'm not sure if it was because they didn't know whether they had to extend it to a second series or what the problem was. The second series has started off at a much faster pace and has definitely piqued my interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ULSTER MAG 0 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Finding Homeland a bit more predictable this series, althought still gripping stuff. Other than Boardwalk Empire, the tv is shite at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4821 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Being able to sit and watch a season of something in a few days is all very nice and that, but I wonder if it takes away from the whole experience. It's also a real downer when you come to the end or catch up to weekly airings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I know there's a fair few on here into their docramentries and the availability thereof . Saw this post on Louis Theroux's blog and hopefully of interest . Hoping to work through them as I fond them . Any comments welcomed y'all . . If it's good enough for Louis . . "I’m often asked to name my favourite documentaries. I’m much too indecisive and changeable to be able to nail down a definitive list. But here are twelve I like a lot. (I was going to do ten, but then I thought of two more…) A Question of Consent Superb disturbing doc made by the team that did Cocaine Cowboys, it recounts the alleged rape of a stripper at a fraternity party in Florida, much of which was filmed by the party-goers themselves. I watched it on a plane and had to keep minimizing the screen due to the adult content. I suppose I could have stopped watching but I was too engrossed. A Letter to Zachary A posthumous love letter from the filmmaker to his murdered friend, it has one of the most explosive and upsetting twists two thirds of the way through. I recently saw this was on the IMDB as one of the most popular documentaries of all time, it’s number two right after Night and Fog. So it’s not exactly obscure but it is totally riveting. Thin Blue Line I love this film. I can still hear the distinctive musical cadences of the principal character, Randall Dale Adams, and his palpable sense of bafflement at the course his life had taken: convicted of killing a cop in cold blood. If you haven’t seen it you’re in for a treat. And this one has a happy ending. American Movie Chris Smith followed a filmmaker called Mark Borchardt and his monosyllabic sidekick Mike Shank over the course of several years to create this beautiful portrait of a man attempting to make a low-budget masterpiece. Full of accidental comedy and poignant moments. The Monastery: Mr. Vig and the Nun This one’s also about a man with a dream: an eccentric Danish bachelor who wants to convert his house into a home for Russian nuns. I saw it at Sheffield Docs Festival and never heard much about it afterwards. There’s something very special about a film that’s driven simply by actuality as it unfolds, as this one is. TV Junkie My friend Freddie Claire turned me onto it. The central character is a news reporter who obsessively documents his own life, to the point of filming his own spiraling drug addiction, the loss of his career and the breakdown of his marriage. The footage he films of his argument with his wife in front of the kids is unbelievably harrowing. The Queen of Versailles This is on at the cinema at the moment! Go see it! A wonderful portrait of a family as their dream of building America’s biggest private house crumbles in the wake of the credit crunch. It’s a riches-to-less-riches tale, very humane, very funny. Don’t Look Back Dylan’s 1965 gets the cinema verite treatment at the hands of documentary pioneer D.A. Pennebaker. Dylan comes across as both tremendously beguiling and also callow and slightly cruel. It’s black and white and looks beautiful. So many great scenes. I like the fans disagreeing about whether Dylan going electric made him just another pop band. Hoop Dreams I remember coming out of a screening of this in New York maybe fifteen years ago and just thinking Wow. The level of intimacy and the filmmaker’s commitment to the lives of their subjects: it’s like a novel. Catfish Some people said they found this fake but I bought it. There’s maybe one scene that’s a bit too good to be true, but overall I loved the strangeness of the quest and the amazing reveal when they find what they find. It’s hard to say too much without giving it away but basically it’s about an Internet romance gone awry. Exit Through The Gift Shop I used to find Banksy a bit annoying but I had a new respect for him after seeing this. It has that wonderful thing of a contributor slightly taking over the film and going in a strange and unexpected direction. Deep Water I just like this story a lot. I read the book when I was a kid, The Strange Voyage of Donald Crowhurst, about the solo round-the-world yachtsman who lost his mind at sea. But I didn’t realize there was so much archive. Very sad, too." http://louistheroux.com/blog/twelve-terrific-documentaries/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
