villa4europe Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Crack on Netflix its good and worth a watch, solid 7/10, does a good job of showing you what crack did to the black community and why it was so popular, did a decent job with the CIA stuff easier to say what it didnt do Spoiler it said a couple of times that two thirds of crack users were white yet it didnt have any real footage or stories from white crack users (bar the middle class ex sportsman and journo) there was no real evidence of it plaguing white communities i think they could have added another 10 to 20 mins detailing the discrepancies between crack and cocaine, i thought they got the poor persons drug and how they used it to punish undesirables side of it down but not so much the leniency towards the rich white mans drug bar the opening chapter the biggest detriment to it is that 13th exists and that its a better film 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osirus Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) Just finished watching 'Capital in the 21st Century' on Amazon Prime, fairly good watch if you're into the whole Political theory/Pseudo-Science thing. On the same theme I would also recommend anything by Adam Curtis which is all available on Youtube, again along the lines of Political Theory with some very interesting takes on modern day society. Particularly enjoyed this one, focuses on our very own 'Great' Britain: Edited January 12, 2021 by Osirus Added the correct link 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping Mindhunters was going to feature Ramirez. He was pure evil. I do like how he was chased down by a mob and beaten before he was finally arrested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Watched the pharmacist on Netflix, pretty good, fair play to the bloke... He's a bit weird though isn't he? Surprised his wife was still with him, seemed a bit obsessive to say the least Anyone know of any good hurricane katrina docs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Watched night stalker on Netflix, very good, very well put together, surprised he's not more in pop culture, saw there's been 2 low budget films made about him but not a big one, I'd never heard of him to be honest, the photo of him in the last episode is haunting, proper evil looking bastard Think the biggest shock in it was th age of the cops! They said in one of the news reports salerno was 46 in 1985 making him 81, crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I'm In The Band. Short but sweet documentary about arguably the best Swedish Rock and Roll band ever, The Hellacopters (The Nomads are also up there). Not sure if it's available with subtitles yet but I imagine it will be before long. Wish it was longer but it's kinda fitting I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
