Exit Through the Gift Shop
Banksy’s unique blend of social commentary, self-deprecation, and outright humor make his documentary about the world of street art and the artists that inhabit it a thoroughly entertaining ride, worthy of mention alongside the greatest films.
Rivers and Tides
Thanks to Goldsworthy’s truly rewarding art and his vision for creating something that inspires an awareness of our own temporality, Rivers and Tides has earned itself a spot on the list of Greatest Films of All Time.
Waste Land
By providing personal connections and anecdotes and faces to put with its grand ideas, Waste Land manages to endear its audience to its characters and elicit buy-in in a way that few other documentaries on the issues of poverty have been able to do.
F for Fake
With the personality of its writer/director/narrator Welles coming through in every meticulously edited moment, F for Fake delivers a shining example of what documentaries/film essays can be – worth watching, entertaining, and informative all at once.
