Free Documentaries

There's only a few hundred there. As if you haven't already been overloaded, but there are some really great ones there, The Power Of Nightmares, Century Of Self.........

Those series by Adam Curtis were engrossing viewing , most definitely worth the watch .


I think I`ll go and watch one now.

I hear ya! Those were a kick in the rear for me. Leaning about Edward Bernays, who I had never heard of a few years ago and who might possibly be the most influential person in America during the 20th century, really blew me away.

Absolute Zero: Nova

Discover the mysteries of cold in this "Nova" special covering four centuries of scientific achievement, including the ice trade, the development of refrigeration and air conditioning and the early efforts to create liquid helium and nitrogen. The program also explains just what makes something cold and how atoms begin to change as they approach absolute zero, the coldest possible temperature in the universe.

Go to Disclose tv and watch Stan Romanek's 10pt series of his lecture at The 2010 International UFO Congress,

Why not head on over and watch some Ted Talks: www.ted.com...

I find them very informative and entertaining. I like the conciousness and philosophy topics.

Here is a great one. It is VERY funny.

Out of the blue: james fox is interesting.
as is I know what I saw

The Corporation
Looking For Fidel
South of the Border
Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak-Oil
Food Inc
Ecopolis
Capitalism: A Love Story

etc etc etc

But I definitely recommend The Corporation first and foremost
