"You are... just assuming it contains misinformation based on the print you read." No! I am saying that anyone who relies on a movie, for the whole of his knowledge on a topic, and then argues the issues with someone who has studied the entire background, and who then chastises him for lack of knowledge, is a walking talking writing case of *hubris*.As for "[presenting] ideas in a very humane and respectful manner" because relatives are still alive -- a concept you think will surprise me -- tell that to a certain backwards-cap-wearing, smirking "film documentarian", not me.
Follow Ups:
...for someone who relies on a movie the haven't even seen, yet they decide they are experts on the subject matter contained within. Did you read some sort of Cliff Notes?"someone who has studied the entire background."
Now that's hubris.I will remind you the question at hand was "what is this documentary called."
Somehow (maybe you read it backwards, or at a 45 degree angle) you've managed to warp it into a discussion on some undefined Universal Truth (you seem to like absolutes, so I will play along).
It did give you chance to post random ambiguous statements about your great wealth of knowledge "studied the entire background", I have to write that again becuase that is funny. Not one iota of actual knowledge, mind you.(Hubris again; let's play with today's Word-de-Jour).
