Re: [Videolib] PPR for PBS
They did not have their own portal so we streamed on our own. ASP does not carry the film I was looking for, "Makers: Women Who Make America," and my inquiries to CollegeAnywhere went unanswered so I let it go.

[Videolib] Fwd: Film as memoir
Hi, I received this request from a prof and thought it would be fun for the list. I thought of these documentaries, but I'm sure she is also interested in feature films: Capturing the Friedmans 51 Birch Street Tarnation Thanks, Jeff UMich .. I'm creating a new course on writing memoir, and I want to include a couple of films. One that I haven't seen yet but that I think will fit well is Stories We Tell, a documentary by Sarah Polley about her deceased mother that incorporates the memories of a range of family and friends and in the process reveals a great deal about those being interviewed. Another possibility is Persepolis, based on the graphic novel/memoir by Marjane Satrapi. Do you have other films you could suggest that would fit this genre? Films that raise interesting questions about storytelling, memory, truth, conflicting versions of events, etc. would be particularly interesting.

[Videolib] docu on activist working in a non-US context
Hello video liberators. An instructor requested "Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry" but that won't be out until december, so he then requested any alternatives, "a rich documentary that focuses on an activist working in a non-US context." Any ideas? It's driving me crazy that I cannot think of anything. I know there's plenty.

It does feel like a David Lynch movie. Hard to say anything that hasn't already been expressed. I'll just say have fun, Gary. You've been an inspiration, and we'll miss you.
