  • 202. The McNamara Fallacy
John Kennedy's Secretary of Defence, Robert McNamara, was a metrics expert who did his best to reshape the United States military using data. His methods failed utterly when it came to fighting the Vietnam War quite possibly because he was relying on the wrong data. The data he really needed was simply not available so he judged it unimportant.

Faith in the Hood

Faith in the Hood

Southeast, the poorest neighborhood in Washington, D.C., has only one sit-down restaurant, but it has hundreds of churches. Faith in the Hood is a compelling portrait of the inner city, seen through the prism of the spiritual life of its people. The film profiles five ministries: a street ministry for former convicts, a socially activist storefront church, a large and powerful Afro-centric church, an evangelical summer camp for youth, and an Islamic school. With commentary from leading experts on African American faith, the film displays the richness of the inner city religious experience and its centrality as a defining aspect of black community life.

West 47th Street

West 47th Street

WEST 47th STREET is a feature-length theatrical documentary film. It follows the lives of four people with serious mental illness, over three years. The film provides an unprecedented window on the lives of people who are often feared and ignored, seldom understood. Co-producers Bill Lichtenstein and June Peoples enjoyed an extraordinary degree of access to their lives, and shot more than 350 hours of tape: off and on the street, in and out of hospitals and homeless shelters, healthy -- and psychotic. The resulting stories, both warm and dramatic, are about people who approach tremendous obstacles with humor, optimism and grace.
