Excellent.  I'm curious as to by how wide a margin Grizzly Man won.

I saw the Bob doc..even with scorsese at the helm the film just didn't get to me like G-man did.

I really liked No Direction Home, but it really failed to stick the landing.  The ending was so abrupt and so... well, I wouldn't even call it an ending.  No sleight to Dylan as an artist, but Scorsese could have done much better with the conclusion.  It seemed like he ran out of time.

Grizzly Man, Easily the best documentary of the five...Oddly enough I actually watched all of them, and I thought Enron, was better than  The Dylan Doc...Something just didn't settle right with me during it...But, don't get me wrong i am a Dylan fan...Just seemed rushy or something...Who knows...
