MUHAMMAD ALI (2021, dir. Ken Burns, Sarah Burns, and David McMahon)
Round One: “The Greatest” (1942 – 1964)
He called himself “The Greatest”, and then proved it to the entire world. He was a master of what is called, “the sweet science” – the brutal and sometimes beautiful art of boxing. Heavyweight champion at just twenty-two years old, he wrote his own roles – in the ring and his life, infuriating his critics, baffling his opponents, and riveting millions of fans.
