3. "Hijacking Catastrophe" was great
but so is "Control Room" (I just saw it over the weekend). I hear "The Hunting of the President" (Conason's doco re Clinton) is out now; that one's on my list.

6. Slasher is pretty good if you're in the mood for something apolitical
It's a doc by John Landis about a guy who does the "wacky" super sales at used car lots.
