4. Slumdog Millionaire
5. Rachel Getting Married
6. Milk
7. The Visitor
8. In Bruges

I didn't feel strongly enough about any of the docs this year to include them in my Top Ten overall, but here are my ten favorite docs of the year:

TOP DOCS

1. Man on Wire
2. Nerakhoon: The Betrayal
3. Trouble the Water
4. Up the Yanghtze
5. Dear Zachary

There were also quite a few fest films I saw this year and liked very much, though they didn't make the top ten above. Some have distribution, some don't ... all are worth watching, if you can find them.
