Beverly Ball:"I'm a fan of Michael Moore's and his telling our society of our need in a graphic, adroit, and sometimes humorous sort of a way."


   

Lun Brown: "Probably not my favorite, but it's called Dhamma Brothers. It's about high security prison in Southern Alabama where they conduct a 10-day silent meditation course with all of the inmates. It's really powerful, quite moving."


   

Andrew Woods: "Two of my favorite documentary films are by Frederick Wiseman, who's a very old filmmaker by now. One is called Law and Order, and the other is called High School. One follows policemen around back in the 1960s in black and white, and the second one is in an urban high school."
