Ken Burns (http://www.pbs.org/kenburns/) is a American film maker who produces really long documentaries about American history. Like his epic 9 part, 11 & ½ hour film The Civil War (http://www.pbs.org/civilwar/) on that American war. If you fear documentaries, especially ones with lots of dramatic pictures and voice-overs, he's the thing hiding in your anxiety closet.
