Operation Odessa

Most Ken Burns stuff... Especially the ww2 one. Also, released in the last year, the Beatles: get back documentary is fascinating to watch the creative process and dedication to the task, if you're so dedicated to sit for all 8 hours of it.

One of my favorites is Vigilante Vigilante: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1651151/
