Have watched three vids – “Une pure formalit? (A pure formality)” in which Gerard Depardieu is held in purgatory for his suicide. Reclusive writer Onoff (Depardieu) gets a lesson in the dangers of what happens when you shave your majestic beard.
“Waco – the rules of engagement” a doco showing the shocking incompetence and brutality of the ATF and FBI in Waco. An eye opener as I really knew so little about the Branch Davidians other than the one-sided sound bites of the time.
And we’re half way through a picture about Tammy Faye Bakker (the ex-wife of Jim Bakker the tele-evangelist) called “The eyes of Tammy Faye” . Once again, I knew nothing about her but this doco outlines her positive characteristics, and she seems quite likable although I’m sure that she’s no saint.
