The best documentaries are the ones that transport you to a certain place or time, and make you feel like you are a vicarious observer on the scene. 'Endless Summer' does this in spades. Despite … more

Invictus is more about the heart of President Nelson Mandela rather than the Bokks rugby team. This film paints a beautiful picture of forgiveness, courage and the … more

I've always had a great admiration for Nelson Mandela, but have only known the very basics about his life and political career. Whenever I saw him on TV I was always captivated by the man who had … more

The 2010 World Cup Final is exciting for fans of World Cup history. Spain and Holland are by far the best two nations to have never won the thing. Spain constantly disappoints, like the Cubs, whereas … more
