#2I just finished his yesterday.
Lots of mind-blowing history.
I didn't know the ML researcher George Hinton is the great great great grandson of George Boole.
Highly recommend!

#3I'm a big Adam Curtis fan, but I was pretty disappointed by this one. The first 5 parts are pretty much the exact same content as his older films - he uses all the same music and even a lot of the same interviews - and some of it seems like he's creating a parody of his own films.
That said, I liked part 6, but I think it should have been released by itself.

#4I find with these documentaries that while they often contain interesting factoids here and there, they meander and never make a significant and convincing point. Can't justify spending 8 hours on this.

#5When I first saw the title, I thought this was a link to the Kylie Minogue music video.

#6Feels like an "event" in documentary cinema. The right inquiry, at the right time. The conflict between individual liberty, and the exacerbation of crisis when something beyond our immediate control occurs. At what cost comes the safety net? And who provides it?

Love a good Adam Curtis documentary, especially when he throws light on obscure moments in history. Probably best not to hang your understanding of the world on the scaffold he constructs though.

So did I. But it's because I confused it with the "Come into my World" video, directed by Michel Gondry. One of the best music videos, in my opinion. It still would have been a little odd to see it here, though.
