| Ichikawa's telephoto lenses... |
Great
moments in sport…
Oracle: Ali? The greatest!
Talib:

Ichikawa’s Tokyo Olympiad 1964 in my book.

| ...went inside the athletes' minds. |
Talib:
And will the Tokyo 2020 Olympic movie be as good?
Oracle:
It’ll be different. Ichikawa’s film was a celebration of ritual, spectacle,
Japan, with lots of short clips of human interest darting in and out.
Documentaries are different now. I predict there’ll be post-modernist,
democratized, technologized elements.
