Don't Look Back (1968)
Here's a good interview with the producer, D.A. Pennebaker. He's well known in documentary film circles. We'll talk a little bit about cinema verite this week, a movement for which Pennebaker was a noted practitioner/developer.

The Freedom Riders (2011)
Only 5 people completed watching Stanley Morgan's The Freedom Riders. That is unacceptable. Please tell bosses, family, friends, etc., that you are paying to enroll in a class from 5:00-7:45 on Thursday nights, and that (amazingly) your instructor requires your attendance at said class.
