Must see documentaries

Man Made Planet.
On BBC Earth.
Brilliant!
Watched it yesterday and was in awe...
 
Started watching "The story of God - with Morgan Freeman"... and have "The story of us - with Morgan Freeman" lined up... seems interesting and very well done.
 
Hitchcock’s Shower Scene: 78/52

It lasts just 45 seconds, but it changed cinema for ever. Endlessly parodied, the shower scene from Psycho required 78 set-ups and 52 cuts, hence the title of director Alexandre O Philippe’s fascinating doc, featuring contributions from Guillermo del Toro, Jamie Lee Curtis and others.

An hour and a half analysing a 45 second scene - the best 90 minutes I've spent watching television in a very long time.
 
Icarus

When filmmaker Bryan Fogel sets out to uncover the truth about doping in sports, a chance meeting with a Russian scientist transforms his story from a personal experiment into a geopolitical thriller. Dirty urine, unexplained death and Olympic gold are all part of the exposure of the biggest scandal in sports history.
