This excellent documentary follows Billy Bragg as he embarks on a mission to put music to a selection of lyrics penned by folk legend, Woody Guthrie. Billy's love of the People's Troubadour is evident as he visits his home town, tracing Woody's life and influences with the help of his daughter, Nora Guthrie. The music (compiled on two albums, 'Mermaid Avenue' Vol.'s 1 and 2) is excellent and is lifted with the collaboration of Wilco. Jeff Tweedy, lead singer with Wilco, seems particularly inspir find out more...

'Burma VJ' is an amazing collection of footage shot by Democratic Action for Burma activists as the 2007 popular attempted up-rising against the evil military junta took place and is both about the demonstrations and, more succinctly, about the brave Burman reporters who filmed them and transmitted the footage to the outside world. The resultant edit by Danish film-maker Anders Ostergaard has won more awards than you've had hot pies. Must watch stuff. find out more...

Mr Moore is at it again, trashing the core values of ‘The Land of the Brave and the Free', this time it's the ripoff American health service, a system which despite its huge cost is one of the least effective in the ‘developed' world. Moore compares it with the health services of Canada, Britain, France and Cuba as examples of how a system should be run, but, and this is always the flaw in Moore's documentaries, you never get a truly rounded argument. However the man's mission is to address the find out more...

An often witty, but first and foremost angry, look at the erosion of the UK's civil liberties since we voted in Tony Blair's New Labour back in 1997. Showing a climate of fear and paranoia, whipped up by a rabidly partial media, that has enabled an insidious political erosion of people's basic rights and with commentary from, amongst others, Tony Benn and Mark Thomas, 'Taking Liberties' is a timely, fascinating and frightening indictment of the transparent reality behind the Saville-suited baby find out more...
