I'm a doc fiend. However, I haven't watched any for quite some time so I don't remember nearly as many as I should

I recommend adding

Fog of War http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317910/ McNamara discusses his experience as Secretary of Defense under Kennedy and Johnson

Night and Fog http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048434/ French film. Very short, made in 50s. Probably the most raw documentary on Nazi concentration camps

The Times of Harvey Milk http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088275/


And a pseudo doc Generation Kill http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0995832/ HBO miniseries. This isn't a documentary, but it's just about as true a story as you're going to get in fiction. It's about a journalist's experience with a convoy during the invasion of Iraq, and according to the actual marines he wrote about, the story is so close to what actually happened that they had trouble telling who's version of the story was more accurate: theirs or the journalist's.

Also, one of the marines plays himself, and another marine plays somebody else. I love this miniseries. May even like it more than Band of Brothers, but that's probably blasphemy...

Also, I remember really liking Why We Fight http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0436971/ but that was before I began researching political issues, and have since discovered that Robert Greenwald kinda likes to get some stuff wrong, and is 'sensational'. I'll say that the documentary is likely really good, but I'm not positive since I would have to watch it again. I just don't really remember anything other than it covering the military industrial complex, which is legit.
