Ren faire

Super interesting documentary that’s shot with unbelievably great cinematography. It’s about an 100 year old guy who owns the largest renaissance fair (in the world?? i don’t remember) and all the internal politics of running it and who will take over when he dies a lot of humor and a lot of heart.

Strange docs

I have so many options depending on what you are into. Grey Gardens (1975) is a must watch, it's totally insane and nonsensical but wildly entertaining. The Jinx (2020) is shocking (true crime-ish), a bit slow at the beginning, but takes insane twists. The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007) is something I was not expecting to like, but the people in it are hysterical and interesting.

Non-narrative docs

Maybe some unorthodox choices but I’ve always been into non-narrative, experimental documentaries. Some of the best I know are “As I Was Moving Ahead, Occasionally I Saw Brief Glimpses of Beauty”, “Koyaanisqatsi”, “Sans Soleil”. These were some of the purest, most powerful cinematic experiences I’ve had in my life, so I’d suggest you peep them. On a (slightly) more conventional note, literally any documentary made by Herzog

Using an old ipod for music

Goated and will def help lower screen time. Also you can learn some stuff if you want to go the pirate + Luddite route
