I've watched a few documentaries since, but the last 'movie' that I watched was "Alice's Restaurant."
It's the movie that goes along with the Arlo Guthrie song by the same title. It's a bit of a family tradition to watch the movie and listen to the song. The missus and I both know most of the words and this year we had a young lady join our festivities, exposing her to the wonder that is Alro Guthrie.
You can read about the movie here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice%27s_...ant_(film)
It's largely based on a true story, as is the song. There really was an Alice's Restaurant and Arlo wrote the jingle as a radio ad. That's the bit about, "You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant (except for Alice)."
Arlo still performs and his father was Woody Guthrie - whom you may recognize as the artist that wrote, "This Land is Our Land." Woody is one of the fathers of American Folk Music.
