The Wild and Wonderful Whites of W. Virginia

I think they used the word 'Wonderful' to cover up some of the fact they are circus freaking this Appalachian family. For the 3 minutes they go into the history of the coal industry having terrible effects on the region's population it gets interesting, then it's back to a shitty, failed MTV project.

Surfwise

A hippie couple in the 70's takes their 1o kids on a never-ending surfing road-trip in a Winnebago instead of putting them in school. A crazy premise but the storytelling is off - no real conflict surfaces until the 1 hour mark & the ending feels sadly manufactured.

Gonzo

A documentary about the eccentric author Hunter S. Thompson. The same movie as Buy The Ticket Take The Ride but a bit worse; watch them together and wonder what the fuck was going through 20 peoples' minds when they did the exact same interview twice.

The Carter

Interesting even if you don't give a shit about Young Moolah... Regardless of if you consider him an 'artist' or not, it's interesting how you feel more sorry for him than anything.
