This is my all time favorite Micheal Jordan the last dance i believe the rest speaks for itself!

I always loved basket ball and Micheal Jordan was a big inspiration for me when i was younger and in my opinion the most legendarily basket ball player to exist and the chi-cargo bulls are a massive influence within the community.

I'm going with the documentary 99 which looks at the treble winning season in 1999 for Manchester United and in particular the 10 days in which they won the 3 trophies and the achievement they reached which no other club had ever reached before. I liked watching the interviews in this documentary from the players and manager, it was interesting to see their views on what happened and what they went through during those 10 days to winning those 3 final games of the season.

For me it was one I watched a week or so ago about Andy Murray, essentially it's an older video but it talks about his battle to hit the no #1 spot and the emotional and physical toll it takes on him, his relationship etc. It's quite a moving piece to be honest.

Over lockdown I started to watch a basketball documentary called The Last Dance about the final season of the Chicago Bulls and Michael Jordan's career.

Nowadays The Last Dance title has been co-opted by the upcoming Venom film but the sports documentary is phenomenal. I feel unless you're in the know - basketball stars are few and far between. Back then there were: Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley and Charles Oakley. All fantastic stars but now there's Lebron James and..

If you are anyway interested in Basket Ball, or even showed a passing interest to Space Jam I heed that you give it a watch

"Witches of the Orient" (2021)

is a must-watch for its captivating portrayal of Japan's 1964 Olympic volleyball team, who overcame immense odds to achieve gold. The documentary blends archival footage with modern-day interviews, illustrating their journey from factory workers to national heroes. Director Julien Faraut masterfully interweaves anime sequences and live-action, creating a unique narrative that highlights themes of perseverance, unity, and the transformative power of sport.
