Two of the best political documentaries I've seen
First is a docu that goes deeper into the fundamentals of US foreign policy than even the best films like No End in Sight or Why We Fight or others I can't think of now. It's about as foundational of political policy and history as it gets, which without a doubt is about oil, and extremely interesting
Six parts, you might be able to find better quality elsewhere, but this is totally fine.

The next is the best lecture I've seen explaining our economic situation (and I've watched quite a few). It explains the history, the real problems, and the solution; and is about as spot on as it gets.
The visuals are bad by design on this copy, but it's the audio that matters, and if you want good visuals I'm sure you can find a torrent or buy it, but really it doesn't matter.

I adore documentaries and lectures and other forms of information that deal with important issues like this, but these two stand above most others because they tackle the problems from a much more important philosophical perspective i.e. they tackle the roots of what's going on, which is sadly a rarity in even some of the most insightful works.
