This documentary might should have won best picture for Oscar. It was amazing movie. And truly crosses over audiences. Doesn’t matter if the audience is sports fans. Everyone finds something in this film

Oh my god, I forgot that it wasn’t up for best documentary! I meant it should’ve won best picture outright. That’s ridiculous about the documentary category

It goes down as one of Oscar's all time biggest blunders that this movie wasn't even nominated for Best Documentary. This was true both in the moment (when the movie a critical sensation, on many year's best lists, and a great box office performer for a doc) and its especially true looking back. To put it in basketball terms, it was an easy dunk and the Academy totally botched it.

This is one of my favorite movies of all time and by far, my favorite documentary. It’s always been listed as one of my top four on Letterboxd.
