The Golden Age of Documentaries

The 1960s and 1970s are often referred to as the "Golden Age" of documentaries. This period saw the rise of cinéma vérité, a style of documentary filmmaking that emphasized observational footage and minimal narration. Filmmakers like Frederick Wiseman, Albert Maysles, and D.A. Pennebaker created iconic documentaries that captured the spirit of the times.
