Deep dive character studies (preferably documentaries)

Post date: 2020-03-27 14:45:06

Hi, I'm looking for folks' suggestions for media that would count as a deep dive character study of someone interesting, preferably mostly about one person, preferably a documentary style thing, preferably not a celebrity although I'm open to those if they are good. Examples of what I've loved within.

Character study media I have loved:

S-Town (podcast, maybe my most favorite example of this kind of genre, absolutely revelatory)

Tiger King (new show on Netflix, love it)

American Movie (doc about an amateur filmmaker trying to make a horror movie)

Evil Genius (doc about a woman who likely facilitated a very weird crime)

Wild Wild Country (looks at the woman who led a cult)

The Queen of Versailles (doc about an extremely wealthy woman and her family's lifestyle)

One that I loved that wasn't just about one person but had a similar feeling:

Casting Jonbenet (about people in the town she was from auditioning to be in a film about her)

Thank you so much, be well!
