Well, I’m sure as hell not doing a post today – my head is killing me from… er… certain festive transgressions. But here’s a Christmas present… Presenting, the best documentary ever made (well, second best – Curtis’ ‘Century of the Self’ is actually better)! Adam Curtis’ ‘The Trap’ was produced for the BBC back in 2007 and is absolutely incredible. If you haven’t seen it already – well, just watch it:
If you have seen it, consider one of his other incredible documentaries:
Oh, and a quick plug of Curtis’ blog – which I often reference and write articles on – for the curious or addicted reader (he’s got a wonderful post on pandas and geopolitics today…):
UPDATE: It would seem that I’ve forgotten to include links to Curtis’ other incredible film offering which, some time ago, me and another few eager bloggers tracked down and made available on the internetz. It’s called ‘The Living Dead’ and it’s up there with the best of Curtis’ work. It can be found here:
