Does anyone want to fess up and reveal how old they are?  Just bringing it up because putting together picks for this is making me think all the way back to junior/senior year of high school.  So poor Konnel has some serious high school picks to choose from.   :)

It's just interesting how film takes you back to such a specific time and place in your life.

Not for Ourselves Alone: The Story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton & Susan B. Anthony

IMDb classifies that as a mini-series, so it might not technically be Filmspot-eligible.

It's not a mini-series, it's a documentary from Ken Burns.
