There is a movie called Collision that came out in march of 2009. It is a bit of a documentary you might say. It follows the debates of Christopher Hitchens and Douglas Wilson. I would say I have probably watched almost everything you can find of Hitchens on the internet and seen most of his debates. Usually the skill that Hitchens has in these debates is completely unmatched, and just unfair. However Wilson is actually able to hold his own, which (while I don't agree with him) is impressive.
The debate is interesting and I actually heard some points that I haven't been exposed to before. And I loved the movie.
One thing I do have to say is the editing on this movie rocked. It is this dry stuffy debating, and they splice in all these sideline chats in bars, and rap music with slowing down the frames. These intellectuals are made to look like these high ranking gangsters I love it.
