Understanding the O.J. Case Like You Never Did Before

Documentary of the Week | Jun 17, 2016

Despite the saturation coverage of O.J. Simpson's murder trial, director Ezra Edelman proves there is a lot more to understand about this story. His new ESPN documentary spans five episodes, examining the full scope of Simpson’s football and acting careers and the context of race relations in Los Angeles. New interviews with key players such as defense attorney Carl Douglas and LAPD officer Mark Fuhrman bring layers of nuance to a story that’s about a lot more than one celebrity on trial.
