Documentary in the Age of War

Yeah, I know I said I was going to take a few days off, but any discussion of documentary is inevitably going to get my attention. The cinetrix has been blogging her experiences at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in Durham, NC, and it sounds really fantastic. Among the highlights: meeting Walter Mosely, who attended in support of the special curated program of films, "Why War?" In the same report, the cinetrix also mentions what sounds like a very fun little doc, Getting through to the President, in which the filmmakers situated themselves beside a bank of phones in lower Manhattan and asked random people to use the payphones to call the "Comment Line" at the White House. Here's hoping some of these documentaries find their way to Atlanta soon.

Enron is coming to your Landmark in the ATL on April 29. Can't wait to hear what you think.

I saw a preview for Enron at the Landmark last weekend when I went to see Realms, and it looks fascinating. Knowing me, I'll be there for the evening screening on Friday and my review will be up two hours later.

Really enjoyed your take on the films at "Full Frame."
