I love Adam Curtis videos and that series really made me think. However
I think that it's really good to watch this video as a critique of the
style as well. The video is a spoof of all the Adam Curtis videos.

The Loving Trap

In a landmark new documentary produced for YouTube, Adam Curtis has not
examined his career and laid bare his style in the light of some
confused academic papers he stumbled across on the internet. Instead, I
have plundered various video archives and ripped him off, up, down,
left, right and back again.
