This Academy Award-winning documentary is probably one of the most defining cross-genre works, and one of the best sports documentaries of all time. Winner of various other accolades, the film is directed by Ezra Edelman for ESPN Films and traces the career of sportsman O.J Simpson from his emerging football career at the University of southern California, and his popularity within American culture, to his trial for the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Lyle Goldman.
