Directed By: Ezra Edelman


Domestic Qualifying Release: May 20, 2016


Thank you based theatrical qualifying run. Without it, The Wave would have been my #50 and my honorable mention would have been....La La Land, so I think the list is better off like this.

 

O.J.: Made in America is a true American epic, chronicling the rise, fall, salvation, and final destruction of a one-time American legend and sports hero, all amidst the backdrop of troubled race relations in a city that desperately tried to sweep it all under the rug and present only the face of artificial dreams and success to the rest of the country (and world). Clocking in at 467 minutes, the work does an exhaustive and microscopic examination of all aspects of OJ Simpson's life, tracing his evolution into sports star and wannabe actor, and how he effortlessly ingratiated himself into white corporate America and shed his African-American skin like few people have ever been able to do. At such a long running time, you would think there would be points where the action sags, where things stall and time is killed waiting for the next major chronological development, but that never happens. It's a testament to how good the editing is, and how incisive and illuminating the interviews are, that every moment feels essential. The cast of real life people provides an excellent and diverse look behind the scenes of his life and of the infamous trial itself, and we see just how badly things went off the rails and yet how still the case could have been won, even after a cascading array of errors and miscues. In all, you won't find much better examinations of a real American tragedy than this.

So am I in the minority of people that considers MOnster Calls to be pretty okay?

 

Considering only a small minority of people here even saw it, being in a faction of a minority makes you a minority of your own
