I really enjoyed the Louis I. Kahn documentary called "My Architect"
It's the first one that came to mind. I wrote a short review of it at Netflix... here:
My Architect is a beautifully crafted documentary about Louis I. Kahn, a Philadelphia architect who designed a limited but influential collection of buildings around the world. The director, Nathaniel Kahn, is Louis Kahn's estranged son and the documentary centers not only upon the buildings his father built, but on Nathaniel Kahn's journey to learn who his father was. He travels the world, visiting his father's creations and interviewing his father's friends and colleagues in an attempt to find out about his father; a man he never really knew but who's life had a profound effect on so many people. My architect is an engaging story with beautiful cinematography. It reminded me, vaguely, of Baraka but with a more defined narrative.

cheers, adam curtis is class, i'd like to see everything by him i think. I'm guess you've seen it but Why We Fight is also excellent in regards to US/iraq bobbins.
Will check for john's not mad and that kahn docu too thanks=]

yeah, night and fog is class too, if pretty grim and graphic. I watched that Enron: the smartest guys in the room documentary recently too and it's worth watching.
have you got that on your hd dobbin? i might have to harrass you and toy with your soft emotions for it.
