In the realm of sports documentaries, the air can feel a bit crowded these days. From biopics of legendary players to deep dives into unforgettable seasons, the sheer volume of content can blur into a single, fast-paced montage. Yet, every now and then, one film stands out—not because it shouts the loudest or dazzles the…
There’s something oddly profound about watching people revisit the chaos of their youth with the clarity of hindsight. That’s exactly what Beastie Boys Story offers—a reflective, sometimes hilarious, sometimes poignant walk down memory lane with Michael Diamond (Mike D) and Adam Horovitz (Ad-Rock) as your guides. Directed by Spike Jonze, the documentary doubles as a…
Sometimes, a documentary comes along that doesn’t just tell a story but holds up a mirror. Girls State, directed by Amanda McBaine and Jesse Moss, is one of those films. It invites viewers to look deeply into a microcosm of political and social life, populated by young women who are brimming with ambition, talent, and…
Life is unpredictable. We know that in theory, but seeing it play out in someone else’s story makes it undeniable. Michael J. Fox has lived two lives: the one that rocketed him to stardom and made him a household name, and the one that came after—one defined by resilience, humor, and an unyielding fight against…
What does it mean to truly know someone—especially someone who has become larger than life? In Louis Armstrong’s Black & Blues, Sacha Jenkins doesn’t try to pin Armstrong down into a neat biography.

When you hear the title Sasquatch, your first thought might not involve a deep dive into human nature, moral ambiguity, or truth-seeking in a broken world.

When I pressed play on Hillary, Nanette Burstein’s ambitious four-hour documentary about Hillary Rodham Clinton, I wasn’t sure what to expect. A puff piece? A scathing indictment? Something safely straddling the middle? To my surprise, it was none of these and all of these at once. This isn’t just a series about a woman—however polarizing…
Every once in a while, a documentary comes along that doesn’t just inform—it sweeps you off your feet, wraps you in nostalgia, and leaves you marveling at the sheer brilliance of human creativity. Hulu’s McCartney 3,2,1 does precisely that, inviting us into an intimate conversation between Paul McCartney and producer Rick Rubin. It’s not flashy…
There’s a certain vibrancy, a rhythm that echoes through the streets of Chicago, and City So Real captures it like a symphony. It’s not a symphony of perfection, mind you. This isn’t one of those polished, postcard-perfect depictions of urban life. No, Steve James’ five-part documentary is raw, messy, and profoundly human. But what does…
Imagine a world where creativity reigns supreme, where design transforms fabric into dreams, and where the air is thick with the anticipation of rubbing elbows with the most glamorous people alive.
