Documentaries on line.

[Queen K]

This is the year I want to watch more documentaries but know that many here watch them online.

What do you recommend? I like archeology, arts, social concerns and many other subjects. But don't even know where to start looking. And yes, I plan to get Netflix this year, but they don't have everything do they?

Here you go Queen K. I've watched some on youtube but not since the "new" look, so not sure how quickly they load.

I like the CBC documentaries

You should watch "Margin Call" grammy. It's not a documentary but I know you're sharp enough to pick up on a number of underlying themes. Good actors and good story and highly relevant to current times.

I enjoyed the Terry Jones series "Medieval Lives" and "The Barbarians"
He's engaging in how he relates the stories,and I can't help but laugh abit thinking of him in Monty Python.
I've only found it on you tube which is abit of a pain having to watch it in increments.

I like to listen to documentaries while I work.

Motherhood Interrupted (Documentary) - what it was like to get pregnant as a teenager in the 1960s.
