I've been watching Dear Mama, the new Tupac Shakur documentary series directed by Allen Hughes of The Hughes Brothers. It's completely brilliant. Tupac's story is amazing, but the filmmaking is also so strong. The use of music & reworking of the songs to tell the story is so well done. And the perspective rooted firmly within the community that Tupac belongs to is very powerful. No respectability politics, just truth telling. Seek it out.

Documentary focusing on two individuals, Jeff and Kelly, who claim to be in love with the 80's pop singer Tiffany, most-famous for her song "I Think We're Alone Now." It's a pretty wild ride.

This is a great channel which I have followed for a long time and still find new things to watch from. I really enjoy their WWII stuff. They seem to have a ton of different docs from all kinds of sources, some old and some new.

"While the Osage are appreciative of Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio bringing the 1920s Terror to the screen, they want the world to know that their story doesn’t end when the movie credits roll.

Mixed with the testimonies of a dozen survivors, most of them young women, terrible scenes retrace from the inside the siege of Mariupol, a large port in southeastern Ukraine on the Sea of Azov, from the start of the Russian invasion on February 24 to the surrender of the last combatants entrenched in the Azovstal metallurgical complex on May 21.
This is an unadulterated first person view into the lives of soldiers and a medic (young female vet) on the front lines in Ukraine's fight against Russian forces. Using GoPro cameras and brief interviews off the front line, a unit of Ukrainian soldiers gives a first hand account of life on the front lines. It's a brutal experience that leaves the soldiers on both sides scarred, injured or dead.
