- Documentary films are the rock and roll of our times. Why are they made? Who are in the tribe of documentary film-makers? Do their films really change the world?
- Eighteen years ago, Nick Fraser created BBC Storyville, producing films that won Oscars, BAFTAs, and Peabody Awards. He found filmmakers from all across the world covering important subjects in documentaries. In Say What Happened he describes the frenzied, intense world of documentary film-making, tracing its history back to the early pioneers, such as Dziga Vertov and his ground-breaking Man with a Movie Camera
- The book deals with the British documentary tradition founded by John Grierson, and discusses the work of American masters such as the Maysles brothers, Frederick Wiseman and D.A. Pennebaker, as well as Europeans such as Marcel Ophuls, Claude Lanzmann, Chris Marker, and Werner Herzog. He interviews acclaimed documentary filmmakers and discusses the work of Ken Burns, Errol Morris, and Joshua Oppenheimer, among others across the globe, as well as listing his top one-hundred documentaries, and where readers can watch them
- In a world beset with ‘fake news’, he argues documentaries are better at getting at the verities about life and death and that the new journalism will come from films made using new technology

Super Soft, Cool & Beautiful!
Color: Green, Size: King (102" X 90")
This blanket is amazing! Its so soft and cool to the touch. It makes you want to skip the flat sheet and sleep with the blanket alone. The green color is gorgeous! I've spent a lot of $ on expensive bamboo quilts this blanket is far better than any of those.

reviewing 2 years later, still in love with this blanket!
Color: Grey, Size: Queen (88" X 88")
i've had this blanket for almost two years - i bought it july 5th, 2024. i should have wrote this review much sooner, there hasn't been a single day in the past almost two years of owning this blanket that i have regretted getting it, it is an absolute must have for hot sleepers. it isn't constantly cold, but it is cold to the touch and you'll feel how cold it is as you move around. it mainly helps regulate your body temperature throughout the night. i've washed and dried this blanket so many times (with cold water and low heat as directed) and it still maintains the cooling effect the same as the first day i got it, it also hasn't torn or ripped anywhere. whenever i travel i always miss this blanket and i am so happy when i come back home because i have my blanket again, it makes a huge difference for my quality of sleep. i'm genuinely considering only packing this blanket and nothing else the next time i travel. also, despite helping me stay cool throughout the night, it's very comfortable and has a nice thickness and weight to it, so i don't feel like i have to sleep with a paper thin sheet for the same effect. what i like to do during winter (and i'm talking actual winter, like wind chill in the negatives) is add a thicker blanket on top to get some extra layering, but still have the cooling effect. 1000/10 i absolutely recommend this blanket if you're a hot sleeper and honestly this company in general, bedsure makes some really good stuff! this was a really good investment for me, yes it's an expensive blanket but it pays off for sure. as a goth person i do wish they had some darker colors for this blanket, ideally black, but when this blanket has helped me this much with my sleep? i took the loss in that aspect, and if the color was the only loss i think that says a lot! thank you bedsure for helping me get good sleep :)

Magic!
Color: Grey, Size: King (102" X 90")
This comforter is super soft. Almost silky feeling. Very easy to wash and dry. It does as advertised. It keeps me super cool. I love it so much that I bought a second one for my camp. It is so cool to the touch. The fit is true to size. It's not thick but not too thin either.
