Question of the Day: Best documentary
Wednesday February 1, 2006
"Murderball," the rollicking, R-rated documentary about wheelchair rugby players, made the cut to become one of the final five nominees for a Best Documentary Oscar. If you want to get a little sampling of what the film is about, you can view a trailer online; and if you're interested but put off by the rating, you can order a PG version from the U.S. Quad Rugby Association. But will you be rooting for "Murderball" to win on March 5 — providing a nice counterpoint to last year's Best Picture winner, "Million Dollar Baby," and its alleged "better dead than disabled" message — or have those darn penguins just captured your heart?

6) No, there's a non-wheelchair and non-penguin doc I like
7) I really haven't a clue about any of the documentaries
8) Documentaries? Who cares?
