Best Boy/Best Man
"Best Boy" is an award-winning documentary about Philly Wohl, a mentally disabled man. It was filmed by his cousin Ira Wohl. It is a warm & sometimes amusing look at Philly and his family . Memorable & touching!
Amazon Price: $26.99 (as of 12/28/2009) 
The Thin Blue Line
aficionados of true-crime stories and documentary film making shouldn't hesitate to pick up this DVD. More than fifteen years after the fact (yes, it's already been that long since this movie was in theaters), "The Thin Blue Line" remains powerful and engrossing, making you truly care about both the specific case in question and the larger criminal justice issues the case illuminates.

Capturing the Friedmans
"There's not enough good I can say about this film. It is fascinating on so many levels.
Filmmaker Andrew Jarecki's original idea -- to film New York City birthday clowns -- took a new tack when he met #1 clown David Friedman, who had a family secret infinitely more intriguing than his birthday work. It turns out that David's father was an infamous Long Island pedophile whose story had rocked the small town of Great Neck in the late 1980s."Jean E Pouliot

"Agee is the story of James Agee, one of the most talented writers of our time. A quintessentially American writer, James Agee was driven by passions for work, friends, films, and ideas. Agee established a reputation as both a warm-hearted genius and as "a sovereign prince of the English language."
In his short, luminous career, James Agee worked as poet, journalist, film critic, screenwriter and Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist whose works include Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, The African Queen, A Death in the Family and Agee on Film." - Amazon.com: documentary
