The Big One
Why this pick
Moore again mixes comic ambushes, direct address, and anger at corporate job cuts, with a broader road-movie scale than Roger & Me.

The Take

Workers reclaiming a closed factory give this documentary the same urgent concern with layoffs, corporate abandonment, and ordinary people fighting back.
