I just finished watching a documentary on the Helvetica type face. Helvetica is a type face that people seem to take for granted, yet we are surrounded by it nearly every day.
From the movie website:
Helvetica is a feature-length independent film about typography, graphic design and global visual culture. It looks at the proliferation of one typeface (which is celebrating its 50th birthday this year) as part of a larger conversation about the way type affects our lives.
If you are interested in graphic design or typography you will probably find this movie as fascinating as I did.
