Fog of War - great about Robert McNamara this douchebag who helped sell the Vietnam war to America.

Really, all those Bush II -era documentaries will really open your eyes. People throw around the term “woke” but you’ll get woke to how you can sell a huge lie to an entire country.

Crumb is definitely a good weird little documentary. I saw it in the 90s and remember it fondly.

Never seen Secret Daughter.
