| Details | WHEN WE WERE KINGS (Leon Gast, 1996, 35mm, 88 mins) 30th anniversary screening! Muhammad Ali floats, taunts, and dazzles in Gast’s exhilarating depiction of the 1974 Rumble in the Jungle, when sports, politics, race, and international identity converged in a steamy Kinshasa stadium. This Academy Award winner for Best Documentary Feature includes astonishing footage of Ali, his rival George Foreman, James Brown, B.B. King, Norman Mailer, George Plimpton, Spike Lee, Miriam Makeba, and more. “One of the best and most emotionally affecting documentaries ever made” (David Parkinson) is both an unforgettable ringside spectacle and a powerful portrait of a global superstar. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive. “Sundance Revisited” features a selection of films from our collection that had their American or world premieres at the festival. |
