NETFLIX INSTANT GEMS: DOCUMENTARIES

This weather is the perfect time to cozy up on the couch with a good glass of wine and a good documentary. But committing to a film for the next few hours can be a challenge. Don't waste any time browsing your options or waiting for a DVD in the mail (do people still do that?) and check out some of my favorites streaming on Netflix

Restrepo (2010)
Definitely one of those films you can only see once and leaves you emotionally drained, but it's a must see. And you'll be on the edge of your seat.

This documentary has been on everyone's radar since it came out, and I promise you will never look at SeaWorld the same again. It's truly eye-opening and infuriating.

Remember that lady who sued McDonald's because the coffee was hot? Sounds ridiculous but that's because the media twisted it to make it seem that way. You'd be surprised to hear the truth behind the case.

If you don't cry, you may not have a heart, so I'd go get that checked out. There is no other vessel that shows the serious effects of bullying like this documentary.

Because nothing else can make you feel quite as lazy as watching a man walk a wire between the Twin Towers. But really, it's a story about the heart, dedication, time, and patience that goes into fulfilling a life goal, and it's insanely interesting.

What are some of your favorite documentaries?
