Description Marion Stokes secretly recorded television 24 hours a day for 30 years from 1975 until her death in 2012. For Marion taping was a form of activism to seek the truth, and she believed that a comprehensive archive of the media would be invaluable for future generations. Her visionary and maddening project nearly tore her family apart, but now her 70,000 VHS tapes are being digitized and they'll be searchable online.

I recently caught this movie on HBO late night and I was pleasantly surprised. I was also slightly disappointed in the end. The documentary does not come out of nowhere and if you are willing to be open minded about what happened to Ms. Stokes and her family, you'll find yourself with a very interesting story to tell.

A very well-made documentary that explores the role of Marion Stokes in the history of dance and the role she played in the creation of the modern dance world. The film covers her life and how she started in dance at the age of 6, where she was discovered by the choreographer "Ginette" and then her role in the development of the modern dance world, where she has inspired and helped many of the greats. The film is very insightful and shows the true meaning of "homework" and how to go out and do something that makes you proud. It also shows the importance of being a role model for young girls and the consequences that can come from doing things that you don't want to do. The documentary also covers the great impact that "The Masters" have had on the history of dance and how they are still making great strides in the world of dance. It also gives a good sense of what a good dance teacher must be and the importance of being a good friend and helping a person to develop a positive attitude. All in all, a very well-made documentary that shows a very important part of American history and how it can be used to inspire and help others. I highly recommend it to everyone who is a history buff and a fan of Marion Stokes.

It's not often you get to hear a director speak candidly about what he has seen and felt in his life. Well, in the case of filmmaker John S. Carpini, it's the story of the battle that saved Marion Stokes's life. A great story, I say. And what a way to share it with us. This film is shot like a documentary, but with a different look. It's not so much about the battle itself as it is about the people who fought and survived it. It is a film that uses its camera in a way that is never obvious. The editing is always subtle, and the movie doesn't necessarily have a focus on one thing. It's an intimate look at the aftermath of war, and it's filled with remarkable personal stories. Carpini was a bit overwhelmed by what he was seeing, but he managed to make a powerful film. The most fascinating thing is that Carpini did all this in the early '80s. He has seen war for many years, but never before has he made a film about the battle of Iwo Jima. The film was shot in 1972 and released in 1982. It's an incredible piece of film-making.

The story of a 'lost' girl who is taken to the Philippines to be sold into prostitution, then was rescued and now in her early 20's, has become a viral phenomenon and is causing many people to be wary of going to the Philippines to be rescued. The movie starts off by giving a brief synopsis of the story and the life of the Marlissa Stokes, then it goes on to the Philippines and shows the reality of the conditions in which the girl was forced to work in. The documentary gives a very thorough and detailed account of the history of the Stokes, her plight and her escape from slavery to freedom. In the end it is shown how she is now living her life in New York, and how she is still very much an inspiration for other young girls who may have been the victims of human trafficking.

This is a fantastic movie. It's a truly inspiring story about one woman who, despite her tragic circumstances, managed to get a degree from Harvard. The problem with the movie is that it focuses on the 'witness' character, not the historical facts. For instance, she didn't get a degree from Harvard, and was not a part of the Harvard faculty, but she was a physician who worked in the inner city. Therefore, she should have a degree from the medical school, not Harvard. The historical inaccuracies, for instance, are not that great. In fact, the movie gives you a sense of what a real, living doctor would have looked like, not the half-ass story that the movie tells you. It also, in my opinion, gives you a more realistic, and real, picture of a doctor than you would find in a movie. In short, this is a great movie. The only thing I didn't like about it is that it leaves out some of the most important aspects of the case. However, I still recommend this movie to anyone, and anyone who is a person who has a keen interest in the medical profession. I also recommend this movie to people who are looking for a good look into a real story, and to people who are interested in the history of the medical profession.

It's a good documentary but a little bit too long for my taste. The reason is that they talk about the history of the Marion Stokes project, but it is only briefly mentioned in the film. They also talk about what the film is about, but they don't give enough information about it. But overall, it's an interesting documentary about the Stokes family, and the rest of the time it's really interesting to watch how the Marion Stokes project works and how the family worked with it.

This is an excellent documentary. I'm so glad it was done, it should be mandatory viewing for all children in America. In the late 60's, women were still struggling to find the "right" man. There was a lot of pressure to marry, and many women felt pressured to do so. Some of the interviewees are only a few years older than me. The documentary was made as part of the "Finding a Girlfriend" campaign. If you are looking for a good movie, you should definitely see this. I know I will be watching it over and over again.

Just like the sound of rain and snow on a snowy day. The documentary is so good. The narration is the best part of the documentary. It is full of the memories of all the people involved. The documentary is made from the people's perspectives. It is an unforgettable experience.

A mother and daughter, Karla and Maynarde Stokes, went on a trip to Mexico, after which Karla was diagnosed with autism and Maynarde with Asperger Syndrome. It's very easy to be skeptical of a documentary like this. They were willing to spend their own money to make it, so it's not really a "hoax." On the other hand, if you don't take this documentary with a grain of salt, it's very inspiring. As a parent of a child with autism, I can relate to these stories. And it really shows you that if you are willing to take a risk for a better future for your child, you will be able to see that future come true. There are a lot of families like the Stokes' that are being left behind. It is really amazing to see the transformation of Maynarde. I can tell you that if I had a child with autism, I would not have given up my job, and I would have given my daughter to save her life.
