“Who killed the electric car?” A fascinating look at the EV1 — an electric car developed by GM in the early 90s and leased to customers in California. The customers then had to give it back when the lease was over… so that GM could crush them all into little pieces and pretend the car never existed. It will make you angry.

Second choice would be “Hands on a Hardbody” about a radio station giving away a truck in East Texas. It’s a great time capsule of its time and place. Both sad and funny.

Oh man Hands on a Hardbody is one of my favs. A true classic. I even saw it in the theater when it came out!
