This year’s lineup is packed with celebrities. I personally would like to see Cleanflix and Chris Rock’s “Good Hair.” I’m always a fan of humor within an interesting documentary.

I feel that the selection is not very diverse this year. There are no good docs from / about Asia??

Hmmmm….list looks good, but also a little too pat, perhaps, and trendy….Mormons, Muslims, Lesbians, Veterans – and as is more & more common in doc programming, lots and lots of CELEBRITTIES.

I wiSH there were more women directors on this list!

As a fan of the podcast, it is a real honor to hear that my film “didn’t really catch your eye.”

Seriously, though. If you have the chance I’d love to see you guys at the premiere–except for Reed.

Let me try the original summary out on you and see which you like better:

When dozens of Utah businesses are caught stripping films of sex, violence, and profanity in the name of conservative family values, Hollywood’s outrage ignites a fierce legal and moral battle. Provocative and illuminating, CLEANFLIX takes a revealing look behind the scenes of the sanitized movie industry and the Mormon culture that spawned it, before coming to a shocking conclusion.

Maybe mine is just more hyped up, but it feels like the film to me. Anyway, hope to see you there!

Only 4 really stand out from the synopses to me. Those being The White Stripes Under Great White Northern Lights, Cleanflix, Collapse, How to Fold a Flag. Collapse and How to Hold a Flag are on there simply because of how much I liked American Movie and Gunner Palace. The Stripes and Cleanflix docs sound interesting on their own though.
