Discussion
throwaway67614: The Last Dance is great but it's also a documentary Michael Jordan had final cut on.
nuggetlurker: Hoop Dreams following those two Chicago kids for five years and not getting an Oscar nomination is still one of the worst snubs ever.
soggy_dumpling_8: Why is The Kid Stays in the Picture here, it's about a movie producer
BenRates: Drive to Survive in C because it's half documentary half soap opera. Got me into F1 though.
throwaway2270: Senna is built entirely out of archive footage, no talking heads, and it still destroys you at Imola.
pigeonhater8: Sunderland 'Til I Die is the most painful thing I've ever watched as a football fan. Better than Wrexham.
