Thanks for posting this, Adam Curtis is a superb, provocative and ironic journalist. Spread the news,keep debate alive!

Thanks for the link to Pandoras Box and Mayfair Set, i'll be watching them now. Century of the Self, Nightmares and The Trap are great. I've burned them to DVD with freeware DVD Flick, straight from the youtube flv files and shared them around friends.

It's a disservice by our media not to offer these presentations to the public in a forum such as educational institutions, public broadcasting or even at venues spread nationally privately fund and/or inexpensively priced at least on at introductory basis. Promote public showings that can be conducted at libraries or social organizations might be hopeful. Simply put this is too good not to be view by more I'll spread the word for however limited affect that will have.

hell yes!

Only 102 views???? Great intro to Adam Curtis, thanks for posting.
