Heist (2021)
Light hearted, dramatised documentary
I watched this series in 3 sittings and enjoyed it immensely. It is light and refreshingly honest. The interviewees are interesting and often funny. It is realistic and doesn't sugarcoat or mythologise the crimes. I hope there's another series.
Watergate (1994)
Gripping
A really fascinating documentary which delves into the heart of the watergate scandal.
I wasn't sure I'd really get into this - I had a spare hour and nothing particular to watch. However having started with the first show, I found that I was completely hooked and watched the first three within a day.
The most impressive part of the show is the number of interviews with the key conspirators/witnesses which they have. They are well arranged and draw the story together in a really gripping way. The writers have accessed all of the tapes and documents and you do really feel like you're in the middle of the conspiracy.
I will be looking to see if there are any similar documentaries done by this team, because I was sad when it was done..
