"The International Documentary Association announced their nominees for their annual awards today. The five features to get the nod are Kassim the Dream, Stranded, Man on Wire, Young @ Heart, and Waltz With Bashir. It’s an interesting batch of nominees, for sure. For one thing, it excludes some the year’s most seen American documentaries. Though Young @ Heart and Man on Wire made multiple millions and are thus considered nonfiction hits, both of the religion twins, Religulous and Expelled (currently the #2 and #3 highest grossing nonfiction films of the year, respectively, behind U23D) were excluded from the honors. Also interesting is the nod for the mostly animated Waltz with Bashir, which Sony chose to keep in the New York Film Festival rather than pull for a qualifying run. IDA also announced today that in addition to the career award t "

"Seven words- Old people singing Forever Young to prisonmates The octogenerians have been left behind in cinema. Cocoon comes to mind, but Young at Heart with it's real life players let's us remember the rich context that life has when it has been lived. As a 94 year old women flirts with her behind the scenes documentarian, we know that these people are not afraid to show us who they really are. As sad, ( old people do die) as it is joyful Young at Heart lets us rethink modern music as a way to rejuvinate our lives whether young or old. megcinema thought- We can't look away, we get old and die, but it's best to go out singing.

"Wildly divergent posts on the State of Documentary today. At Film.com, Eric D. Snider comes up with four “possible explanations” for why reality television is more popular than documentary film; scale of distribution (ie: the fact that most documentaries play in just a handful of cities, if they get traditional theatrical distribution at all) is not mentioned, but the “lighthearted” nature of reality TV vs. non-fiction film is. Meanwhile, AJ Schnack points out that the crowd-pleasing Young@Heart is the fourth doc to cross the $1 million mark at the box office so far this year, putting 2008 on track to be the biggest year for docs since 2003. The second-highest grossing doc of this banner year thus far is Expelled; in a Pop Matters post about why that film is “the essence of bullshit”, George Reisch dismisses its success by claiming that “early box-office indications are that it’s a fizzl "
