Advantages: An incredibly accurate DVD of the Hindenburg & the disaster Disadvantages: May feel like a history lesson to some people
**What Is It?**
The Hindenburg Disaster is a DVD remembering the incredible airship the "Hindenburg" This one disk DVD contains detailed accounts of eye-witnesses, real footage, real radio broadcasts and the court case and theories after the Hindenburgs disaster. **The History Behind the Hindenburg**

It was a staggering 245m long and 41m wide which is longer than the titanic herself. In other words its slightly longer than 3 Boing 747's.

The episodes focus on Paris and Nicole separately and explore their personal lives and careers instead of just what they are doing on the show at the time, again this is different than the other seasons.

Advantages: Interesting and entertaining, Great interview with Tony Benn Disadvantages: Some subjects are arguably exploited, Does not consider disadvantages of socialised healthcare
"Sicko" (2007) - FILM ONLY REVIEW Writer: Michael Moore Director: Michael Moore Running Time: 123 minutes Certificate: 12A (UK) / PG (Ireland) / PG13 (USA) It has become something of a cliché to describe Michael Moore as a controversial, polarising character. To some, he is the White Knight of the left whose regular-guy approach to discussing uncomfortable subjects should be applauded, while to others he is a man who has exploited vulnerable interview ... ...picture he wants to make his attention-grabbing documentaries a success. An entire industry has grown up attempting to discredit Moore's work and has given his reputation something of a battering over recent years, but while some of the criticism he has received has I think been justified, this has not prevented him producing his highly entertaining 2007 documentary "Sicko" about the American medical industry.
