Examples of sync to picture documentaries?

Aside from Bruce Browns The Endless Summer, does anyone know of other movies with this style of narration? No interviews, no special sound effects just background music and narration.

I had to look up what that style was and according to some webpage on making documentaries they stated it was called sync to picture which is not common.

The only movie I know is TES. I would like to check out other examples of this style movie.

Thanks.

Right off the top of my head:

All the Disney “True Life Adventures” including the newest one.
The “Blue Planet” and “Planet Earth” series.
March of the Penguins
Much of “On Any Sunday” was done that way.
It’s been years since I’ve seen it but I think “Mondo Cane” fits.
All the “Faces of Death” movies were done with that method.

Even the pseudo-narrative films like “Charlie, the Lonesome
Cougar” and “The Incredible Journey” have most of soundtrack
done that way.

Thanks! Forgot all about March of Penguins...never saw On Any Sunday and just glimpsed it on youtube and thought - sounds like Bruce Brown - so its a movie I want to see from start to finish.
