WHATS UP DOC?

Channel 4's 4doc's site is streaming probably my all time favourite documentary The Leader, his driver and the drivers wife by Nick Broomfield.

4Docs also hosts a film about the 491 Gallery in Leytonstone.

Before they found this place the original 491 posse asked if they could transform our squat in Hoxton into an art event. It was reeking and full of stinking junk at the time. I was outvoted and we turned them down.

Are you familiar with this documentary:

The Power of Nightmares

or where one might find a copy?

Of course. If you look at the "relevant news" on the left I've linked a site from which you can download quicktime versions.

Thanks. I thought I'd seen a link around here somewhere. I could've looked around some before asking, but I wanted to post that link, anyway, for the transcript.

Also .avi-version in different sizes are available over at archive.org, as well as Curtis equally excellent The Century of the Self.

...un-clued-up strikes me as a mighty fine word.
