Untold; Malice in the Palace (2021) - Another sports documentary, what can I say..... I like them. My husband likes them too, so this was an easy sell. This documentary go over the story of the blowout between the Pacers and the Pistons after a foul on the court "inspires" a fan to throw a drink at Ron Artest at which point he storms into the stands and chaos ensues.
The reaction to this skirmish was predictable, the blame was placed on the players, unprecedented suspensions were handed out and careers were tainted. The filmmakers were able to get access to the security footage from that night and it shows a fuller picture. The focus of the TV coverage being the players, obviously, the security footage, however, lets you see what was happening with the fans and the lax security. We both enjoyed this one, the interviews were great.
We watched this on Netflix.
