Roger e Eu
Herself
Quando o cineasta realizador de documentários Michael Moore fez seu primeiro trabalho importante, Roger and Me, literalmente niguém acredita nele, e não era para menos: o que se propunha era pedir explicacões a Roger Smith, presidente da General Motors, pelo fechamento de onze fábricas na cidade de Flint (cidade natal de Moore, no estado de Michigan) que deixou 30.000 pessoas sem trabalho. O mais flagrante era que as fábricas automomobilisticas deixavam um superávit milionário. Durante dois anos Moore tentou sem êxito entrevistar Roger Smith mas entretanto fez o retrato de um cidade que um dia foi modelo de bem-estar e entrou na miséria por uma decisão da mesma companhia que a levantou.

Drugs Are Like That
Narrator (voice) (as Miss Anita Bryant)
[…] Though the highs and lows of human experience are all here, it's often the gimcrack set design and fashion chops in these vintage clunkers that really wow – the pot-holder sweater vests, ponytails decorated with yarn, hippies with crumb-catching moustaches, banana-seat bikes and a hard rain of Quaaludes and amphetamines to illustrate the dangers of drug addiction. It is hard to believe anyone would buy the goofball cause-and-effect of that pill-popper's weather pattern in "Drugs Are Like That". Co-produced by the Miami Junior League and narrated by Anita Bryant in this cheery little hand-slapper, a kid stealing cookies from a cookie jar is implied to be headed down a bad road to Bowery bum rolls and LSD parties.
