Undefeated (2011)
Sometimes a good documentary becomes better simply because they got lucky while the cameras were rolling. It requires careful forethought, but also a bit of luck. Undefeated is a prime example of this.
The coach deserves a lot of credit as a motivator. The first hour of the doc impressed me the most, maybe 90 minutes instead of 113 minutes would have been more appropriate, who knows. I did enjoy it despite that minor issue.
You have a really great site! Have you picked your Top 10 Movies of 2012? I just posted mine here: http://worldofsoren.blogspot.com/2013/03/list-my-top-movies-of-2012.html.
Not yet Soren, but soon. I checked out your Top 10. I'm not sure if you noticed, but I gave your #1 pick (Beasts of the Southern Wild) an F. Hated it. I liked many of your other selections though.
