    • Trivia
      Director Ezra Edelman struggled on the decision to include the forensic photos of the bodies of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, but ultimately decided to edit them in to remind the audience that the trial was meant to be about a horrific double homicide instead of the discussion about race and corrupt law enforcement that it ultimately progressed into.
    • Goofs
      Robert Shapiro says in an interview with Barbara Walters that O.J. Simpson was found innocent. Simpson was found "not guilty", not "innocent".
    • Quotes

      O.J. Simpson: [referring to his refusal to participate in racial tensions during the Watts riots] I'm not black, I'm O.J.

    Is this the final chapter?
    Well is it the final chapter? I seriously doubt it. We all must have seen numerous documentaries about OJ and what happened or didn't happen and we all have our own version of what we think happened. Some older people (like me) may remember watching this as it happened and some may have caught up after the fact but it's still a fascinating watch.

    This is as comprehensive as it gets, and at seven and a half hours does cover it very comprehensively. I did it in three instalments and never got bored on any occasion. It was factual, with actual footage of the trail, and is updated with commentary provided by many who were involved.

    I'm not gonna take sides and slam or praise anyone but be assured, you will. No matter how you think things went down you will have a good guy and bad guy scenario and like me you will become a little louder than normal.

    Well worth a watch even though it takes a while.
