Queen Elizabeth I built on the reign of her Father, Henry VIII, to rule over an ever-expanding empire. But she was not without powerful enemies. Philip of Spain had a considerable bone to pick with the daughter of his sister's successor. She was the queen who built her kingdom on a heresy and in one scant generation created a power base equal to his own. In 1588 he used his Armada to attack Elizabeth when she was at her most vulnerable. Probably not the best time for the Queen to fall in love, and certainly not with the man most likely to be England's saviour, Sir Walter Raleigh.

Yale University, 1961. Stanley Milgram (Peter Sarsgaard) designs a psychology experiment that remains relevant to this day, in which people think they're delivering painful electric shocks to an affable stranger (Jim Gaffigan) strapped into a chair in another room. Disregarding his pleas for mercy, the majority of subjects do not stop the experiment, administering what they think are near-fatal electric shocks, simply because they've been told to. With Nazi Adolf Eichmann's trial airing in living rooms across America, Milgram's exploration of authority and conformity strikes a nerve in popular culture and the scientific community. Celebrated in some circles, he is also accused of being a deceptive, manipulative monster. His wife Sasha (Winona Ryder) anchors him through it all.

The cast list is a who's who of the music scene at the time Jimi Hendrix was making his mark. This documentary has the freshness of being made relatively close to his death, but lacks the longer perspective of time. It isn't a weakness when the people appearing in it include Mick Jagger, Lou Reed and Pete Townsend. It covers the period between 1967 - The Marquee, including Monterey, Woodstock, Fillmore East and Berkeley to 1970 at the Isle of Wight Festival. A must see for Hendrix buffs.
