Movie Haiku:Doc version of the Levitt/Dubner best-seller sends 5 directing teams out to film vignettes that exmplify their theories. Gordon contributes the author interviews that introduce each segment. With so many opinions filling the air waves day & night, how refreshing to find people actually seeking novel ways to explain the data!
