The Big One est un documentaire américain de Michael Moore réalisé en 1997 lors de la tournée de promotion de son livre Downsize This! à travers les États-Unis. À chaque ville traversée le film montre la réalité sociale et le chômage en allant à la rencontre des salariés et des dirigeants d'entreprise. Il dénonce les pratiques de multinationales qui licencient leur personnel alors qu'elles font des bénéfices, ou comme Nike, dont certains sous-traitants utilisent le travail des enfants.

En 1999, Andy Bichlbaum et Mike Bonanno créent un site internet parodique qui imite celui de la toute-puissante Organisation Mondiale du Commerce. Leur imitation n’est pas trop mauvaise puisque, rapidement, des gens commencent à visiter leur site sans réaliser qu’il s’agit d’une plaisanterie ! Certains n’hésitent pas à poser des questions sur la libéralisation du commerce, et nos joyeux imposteurs décident d’y répondre de leur mieux…

Celsius 41.11 defends Bush against five of the arguments advanced by Fahrenheit 9/11 and additionally criticizes John Kerry, arguing that his opposition to the Vietnam war and his military service in that same war are contradictory positions. The opening images of the film are of the second plane hitting the World Trade Center on September 11. The film then moves to clips of the demonstrations against the war in Iraq, including an interview with an unnamed protester who says she would be happy to live under a dictatorship if the ruler provided universal health care. The next segment shows images of dead children.

Le distributeur décrit le documentaire comme « un regard provocateur et comique sur notre époque », faisant référence à l'élection présidentielle américaine de 2016 et à la présidence ultérieure de Donald Trump. Le documentaire explore également deux questions: comment les États-Unis ont progressé vers la présidence Trump et comment « sortir » de l'ère de l'administration Trump.

Seul sur scène dans un théâtre de l'Ohio, devant un public acquis à Donald Trump, Michael Moore aborde, avec sa verve habituelle, tous les grands thèmes de la campagne électorale américaine. Ce show politico-satirique apporte un éclairage inédit sur des élections plutôt atypiques.

Britney Spears is an American singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, and occasional author. The documentary reveals Spears's most intimate moments in the span of 60 days, from the beginning of her much publicized meltdown, until how she returned to the music spotlight. She also reflects on past decisions, saying "I'm a smart person... What the hell was I thinking?!" For the Record includes footage from her appearance at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, going into the recording studio, to the video shoots of her singles "Womanizer" and "Circus"—songs off her sixth studio album, Circus—to rehearsals, and press tours. Madonna also makes a special appearance and commentary. Spears talks about past relationships. She explains that going through her first break-up, with boyfriend Justin Timberlake, in the spotlight was no easy task for a teenage girl. She felt that all the publicity made it even more difficult and confusing for her to move on at such a young age and so she began to act out. Her break-up with husband and father of her two sons, Kevin Federline, was even worse she explains. This loss took an even greater toll on her and once again all the paparazzi attention did not help.
