The other night [livejournal.com profile] saintpeg and I went to see Control Room at the Sunshine. One of the previews of upcoming films was for The Motorcycle Diaries. Music swells as the camera zooms in dramatically on Che and Alberto looking down on the landscape opening up below them.

[livejournal.com profile] saintpeg: This is going to be so good!
me: Dude, they look just like Frodo and Sam!

Don't believe me? Watch the trailer.

huh?

I'm interested to know what you thought of Control Room, since I'm thinking of going to see it in the next couple of days.

I thought it was very good. It was much more subtle and observational than the other two documentaries I saw in the last month--F9/11 and The Corporation; it made important, necessary points of analysis without being didactic in the slightest. Also, it was just well-made and very engaging to watch. If you are thinking of seeing it, I definitely recommend it.
