Editorial Review:
Description
If 2004 was the year of the documentary, Robert Greenwald was its brightest and most prolific star. The three acclaimed documentary films featured in this collection were all commercially released in 2004, and all forged unprecedented new ground in how documentary films could be released. With the support of MoveOn.org, The Center for American Progress and other dedicated groups, the films were marketed initially via the Internet before they arrived in stores on DVD. Further turning established wisdom upside down, all three went on to play in theaters around the world. A new distribution mechanism was born.

Customer Reviews:

The Robert Greenwald Documentary Collection.......2007-05-07

His movies tell the truth, and he makes sure it is a fact, after he finds it. Get any movie he makes, it will be 5 star everytime.

Essential Viewing.......2007-02-23

All of Greenwald's films should be shown free at theaters and available at public libraries. In addition, movie stars should pony up their funds and pay for these films to be shown on network TV, or at least cable. Stick one of these in place of American Idol one night. Half the people would change the channel for their usual mindless fluff. But maybe half would watch and that would be millions of potential Americans who might learn, and hopefully engage in the political system.

Outfoxxed-Unconstitutional-Uncovered.......2007-02-22

These DVDs ought to be required viewing in every classroom and every household in America. They are extremely well done and absolutely riveting in exposing dangers inherent in the machinations that are driving our country.

Robert Greenwald Documentaries are perfect for Introduction to Mass Media classes.......2007-01-05

I originally purchased this collection because it was the only place that I could find "Outfoxed," which I had wanted to use in my Introduction to Mass Media course. However, I found that its contents covered more than just the Murdoch documentary. "Uncovered" works well when the class is dealing with the chapter on Public Relations, in that it offers an in-depth look at spin control as well as crisis management. "Unconstitutional" works increadly well with the chapter on Legal Ethics and legalities involved in mass media. I haven't watched the bonus disc yet, but I highly recommend this collection to anyone teaching any type of journalism course.

Politics: Who Cares About The Facts?.......2006-07-05

Who cares about the facts; the truth? I do. Evidently Robert Greenwald doesn't. This so-called "Documentary Collection" will live historically as evidence that Mr. Greenwald, et al, have distorted the facts for purposes of promoting their own self interest.

This is the kind of thing and the type of people that gives our party, Democrats, a questionable odor. In this respect, their efforts have failed to attract the intelligent portion of our party to support their project.

I give it 4 stars for production quality and for distortion of facts, which seems to be the real purpose and their true goal, also 4 stars.

I'm sure there are some who will disagree with my review. Be advised: I simply call things like I see and hear them.
