Ken Burns' Civil War
A teacher told me her students found this documentary, which I watched repeatedly, very boring. Kids today! Could have been a not exciting part, but still. Meanwhile, his daughter wrote a book on the infamous Central Park rape case, that turned out to be a major travesty of justice, and made a documentary on the matter. Will check out the book later.
