Have you watched Spellbound about the national spelling bee?

First Position

Follows the lives of 4 teenage ballet superstars

For lighter fare Jiro Dreams of Sushi

I second “Making a Murderer.”
Best. Documentary. Ever.
Especially the first season.

And you just have to watch the R. Kelly one.

Yes, the Frye Festival on Netflix is pretty good.
I love cats personally & have heard the Netflix documentary is pretty graphic so may not watch it.

Now if someone can help me. There was a movie about a man who became a famous architect in NYC, involved in Empire State Building etc. he started as a young boxer and was self taught as an architect. Does anyone know this film. It was so touching. About his whole life. He was a delightful man.

I don’t know that one but years ago I saw My Architect:

Louis Kahn, a giant among twentieth-century architects, left a legacy of brilliantly designed and engineered buildings that have a tough beauty and deep spirit. His work challenges us to discover an astonishing sensibility and poetry through light, space, and texture. Kahn's personal life was even more mysterious, and his death, alone and unidentified in Penn Station in 1974, revealed that he led not a double but a triple life, shuttling between his legitimate family and two women and the children they bore him. One of these, his son Nathaniel, takes us on a personal journey to consider the contradictions of this complicated genius and eccentric parent.

I was especially riveted, as a former Catholic. It made me absolutely furious.

Nice do they talk about the debate team beating harvard’s Debate team.

Oh yes! The debate team is featured in episodes 3 and 4 and the Harvard debate is in episode 4. Great story!
