Whore's Glory on netflix

Surprised no one mentioned Lime Rock Park: The Secret Valley of Racing. Great independant documentary about the history of Lime Rock. It really captures the magic of LRP.

More info here: Chris Szwedo Productions

I invited Chris Szwedo to show his "Gullwing at Twilight" documentary at my PCA region's monthly meeting a few years back. Great down to earth guy - very passionate about his work, and a great artist as well.

and now for something totally different.

Against the Tide: The Story of the Acadian People

It wouldn't mean anything to most of you guys but if you might be interested in learning a little about the sad history of the early cajun people and all the tragedy and hardship they endured first at the hands of the french govt. then the british govt, the Spanish govt, French govt again the finally the US govt. before making a life in the swamp lands of Louisiana where no one else wanted to live. meaningless to you guys I'm sure but with a family history in louisiana going back to the mid1700's it choked me up bit. and you get to listen to some good cajun music too

the scene with them on the 2 lane bridge and also when they rode down the 2 lane blacktop past the old plantation shotgun houses before they were killed by the levee was shot here in my town 2-3 miles from my home. my old friend lived in the one house with the door painted blue, that how i first learned they filmed it here. my sister swears Fonda rode her on back his bike. knowing how bad my sister was back then, he probably rode her at the motel too. hahaa

Several to choose from on Hulu...most are free as well

one bridge was the Morgan City bridge and another was the Amelia bridge. you can see the McDermott Fabricators yard with rig platforms under construction on side of Amelia bridge

Highly recommend "Which way is the front line from here" about photojournalist Tim Hetherington. Covers his life & work and the wars he'd covered, really amazing and I knew nothing about him.

Thank you for posting this... I have been watching chapters of the episodes as I have time during my lunch break at work. It very quickly sucked me in. Very good...

Manda Bala.

Doc about corrupt Brazilian politicians, bulletproofing cars, and a plastic surgeon who´s a master at reconstructing severed ears. I have yet to meet a Brazilian who has seen it.


Wasteland

Shows the happier side of Brazil.

Saw a great documentary about this British middle aged man. Can't remember the name of the doc. He goes over to Thailand with all his money. Meets Thai girl, they settle down. They buy a farm, Lots of sex. She works hard. He does nothing but laze around and drink beer. She tires of him and boots him out. He goes back to the Uk penniless. She carries happily on.....:) Beware!

Note by Note - Steinway and Sons make concert grand pianos pretty much the same way they did 100 years ago. If you're into craftsmanship I think you would really like this. My only critique is I wish they had gotten deeper into explaining the work they do in detail, but still really good. Available on Netflix.
