Hot Coffee (Docurama) — Susan Saladoff’s call-to-arms documentary about how corporations manipulate and take advantage of consumers won’t win any points for subtlety, but when it comes to the four incidents that she uses to state her case, it’s hard to show restraint. Good luck not becoming downright livid after watching this film. Available on DVD.
Rejoice & Shout (Magnolia) — Don McGlynn’s history of gospel music has enough archival footage to keep you grooving for quite some time. Available on DVD.
Tabloid (MPI Home Video) — Personally, I wasn’t a big fan of this Errol Morris lark but it seems to have some devotees. Available on DVD.
