What Documentary Movies to watch on Tubi

Over the last three decades Brian Moore has searched out, drank and recorded over 38,000 different beers, yes, that is 'thirty-eight THOUSAND'. He is the undisputed Champion Beerticker of Britain... and probably the world! Beerticking, or scooping, as it's also known, is where the traditionalists lie. Having allegedly grown out of the Train spotting era, Beerticking has an unwritten and very strange set of rules (often flouted). The tickers travel the length and breadth of the country, and some travel the world in search of new cask conditioned beers that they can drink and 'tick' before adding to their ever-growing list. From this hobby, a community of enthusiastic and eccentric drinkers has formed and they are the basis for this 70 minute documentary entitled 'BEERTICKERS: beyond the ale'. Following Brian the Champ, Dave Unpronounceable, Mick the Tick and Gazza Prescott the film is a journey into the world of collecting and Britain's national drink... real ale. As alcohol is further taxed and binge drinking dominant in the media, the film maker explores the hobby of beer ticking and its position in a far bigger context of beer history and national pride. This is a film about obsession, identity, curiosity and tradition. This documentary film is an exploration of the collectors psyche and of Great British drinking culture - not to mention a severe test of one film maker's affection for and dedication to beer.

In 1970, 1,500 hippies and their guru Stephen Gaskin founded a commune in rural Tennessee. Members forked over their savings, grew their own food, delivered their babies at home and built a self-sufficient society. Raised in this alternative community by a Jewish mother from Beverly Hills and a Puerto Rican father from the Bronx, filmmakers and sisters Rena and Nadine return for the first time since leaving in 1985. Finally ready to face the past after years of hiding their upbringing, they chart the rise and fall of America's largest utopian socialist experiment and their own family tree. The nascent idealism of a community destroyed, in part, by its own success is reflected in the personal story of a family unit split apart by differences. American Commune finds inspiration in failure, humor in deprivation and, most surprisingly, that communal values are alive and well in the next generation.

There was a time, as recently as the 1980s, when storefronts, murals, banners, barn signs, billboards, and even street signs were all hand-lettered with brush and paint, but, like many skilled trades, the sign industry has been overrun by the techno-fueled promise of quicker and cheaper. The resulting proliferation of computer-designed, die-cut vinyl lettering and inkjet printers has ushered a creeping sameness into our landscape. Fortunately, there is a growing trend to seek out traditional sign painters and a renaissance in the trade.
