I Am Ali
classified PGPlease note: This was screened in Dec 2014
An intimate look at the man behind the boxing legend, told through exclusive, unprecedented access to Ali's personal archive of audio journals, combined with candid interviews and testimonials from his inner circle of family and friends. From his birth as Cassius Clay and his boxing beginnings in Louisville, Kentucky to gold at the 1980 Rome Olympics, beating Henry Cooper at Wembley and Sonny Liston for the heavyweight champion of the world, preparing for his great 1970s fights Rumble In The Jungle (against George Foreman) and the Thriller in Manila (against Joe Frazier), from changing his religion and his name to going into exile after refusing the draft for Vietnam, it's all here. It is a skilful, driven documentary that never lets us forget that Ali truly is the Greatest.
