You seem to contradict yourself: you say 'whenever I see' etc, but then ask 'what are some (of these films)'? If you know you've seen some, how come you can't identify them?

Whenever I see an ethnographic travelogue or some study of "the other" by a white male at a screening, there's always a collective eye roll of "great, another white male putting minorities on the screen."  I know the trope, but I don't actually know any of those specific cliche films.  What are some?
