I have watched a pretty decent amount of documentaries during my 16 years of life. I watch documentaries about history, physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, and medicine. I wanted to create this post to get to know the kind of documentaries other people watch and why. So if you have any recommendations or opinions about documentaries feel free to share your thoughts.

Any documentary by Ken Burns will be well researched and well done.

If you can fond them, look into them.

“Anvil! The Story of Anvil”

The hilarious, sad, and warm fuzzy story about the world’s most lovable loser metal band. Even if you hate metal, you can’t help loving the band and hoping they find success at the end (or at least not another dismal failure).

On a serious, artistic level, Orson Welles’s “F for Fake” is a mindblowing experience as Orson pulls us into the world of art forgeries, asking ‘whats the difference between great art & a great art forgery?’, and ultimately tricking us into one of the greatest gotchas in documentary history.

Oh, I'm a sucker for documentaries that blend humor and heart like the one about the endearing metal band. It's amazing how they make you root for success despite not being a metal fan. And speaking of mind-blowing experiences, Orson Welles's "F for Fake" is a true masterpiece, challenging our perception of art and delivering one of the best gotchas in documentary history. By the way, have you checked out any documentaries on Emily Henry books? They bring a unique charm to storytelling that's worth exploring!
