 6:15 p.m.

A documentary examining the broad implications of O.J. Simpson’s trial and acquittal on murder charges has won the Oscar for best documentary.

The ESPN film “O.J.: Made in America” runs seven hours and 47 minutes and is the longest film to win an Academy Award.

“O.J.” documentary director Ezra Edelman paid tribute to Simpson’s late wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ron Goldman, whose brutal killings led to the so-called “Trial of the Century” against the former NFL great.

The film is one of several documentary contenders this year that examine racial issues in America, including “I Am Not Your Negro” and “13th.”

The category was introduced by the cast of “Hidden Figures.” They in turn introduced Kathrine Johnson, one of the black NASA pioneers.

 Mahershala Ali is the winner of the Academy Award for best supporting actor for his “Moonlight” role.

Ali won for his first Oscar-nominated role, in which he plays a Miami drug dealer who mentors a young boy who is being teased and bullied.

It has been a breakout year for Ali, who starred on the Netflix series “Luke Cage” and also had a role in another Oscar-nominated film, “Hidden Figures.”

Ali paid tribute to his teachers and “Moonlight” director Barry Jenkins in his acceptance speech and thanked his wife, who gave birth to their daughter four days ago.

Costume Design went to “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.”

“Suicide Squad” won the Academy Award for Makeup and Hair styling.

The Oscars have started off on an upbeat note with Justin Timberlake dancing in the aisles of the Dolby Theater and interacting with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars.

Timberlake kicked off the show with a performance of his Oscar-nominated song “Can’t Stop the Feeling” that included a high-five with Denzel Washington. Actor Javiar Bardem danced like he was in a nightclub.

The singer had promised a politics-free opening to the 89th annual Oscars, and he delivered.

Host Jimmy Kimmel kept the mood light in his opening, telling Timberlake that if his former bandmates in ‘N Sync were watching, they’d let him back into the band.

Kimmel didn’t stray entirely from politics, and urged audience members to reach out to someone with opposite views from them. He also took a shot at President Donald Trump, saying his policies had made the Oscars seem less racist.

“O.J.: Made In America” won the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature at the 2017 Academy Awards Sunday night.

Producers Ezra Edelman and Caroline Waterlow accepted the award Sunday night for the sweeping portrait of the trial of the century, which gripped viewers for all of its epic 8 hours. Produced by ESPN’s 30 For 30, it has been seen by upwards of 50 million viewers, proving that quality films can have a mass appeal, especially when the subject is one that fascinated so many people.

“I want to thank the Academy for acknowledging this untraditional film,” Edelman said. He dedicated the win to Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown.

“O.J.: Made In America” tells the story of the O.J. Simpson trial, beginning with Simpson’s college football years and ending with his the little known story of his later days, which eventually led to his being arrested for armed robbery of his own memorabilia. Edelman amassed a stunning number of participants, from original jurors to members of Simpson’s defense team, as well as prosecutor Marcia Clark.

Other nominated films were Ava DuVernay’s “13th,” Raoul Peck’s “I Am Not Your Negro,” Gianfranco Rossi’s “Fire At Sea,” and Roger Ross Williams’ “Life, Animated.”

Best picture</s>Japanese animation maestro Hayao Miyazaki is coming out of retirement to work on a new feature for his Studio Ghibli banner, according to his longtime producer Toshio Suzuki.

Suzuki revealed the news at a pre-Oscars event on Friday in Los Angeles for the Academy Award nominated animation The Red Turtle where he said that Miyazaki was working on a feature project and had given him storyboards for it late last year. “Right now in Tokyo, he’s putting all his effort into making it [the feature],” he said.

Japanese press has speculated that the new film could be a feature-length version of his CGI animated short Boro the Catepillar and when pressed about the possibility, Suzuki gave no details. “All I can say is that it’s really interesting,” he said.

Miyazaki announced his retirement from feature films in 2013 but when Studio Ghibli came aboard production of The Red Turtle, the 76 year-old director started working on a new feature which he brought to Suzuki last summer.

Miyazaki is considered one of Japan’s greatest animation directors. The Studio Ghibli co-founder is behind classics such as Oscar-nominated Howl’s Moving Castle, The Wind Rises, Oscar-winning Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro.</s>Conquered all the 2017 Academy Awards Best Picture nominees with just a day to spare? That means there’s plenty of time to screen this year’s feature and short documentary nominees.

From war-torn Syria, to inside The Lion King, the Best Documentary Feature and Best Documentary Short films vary in topic and genre. Luckily, many of the films require only a Netflix subscription to view. Here’s how to watch them, now.

How to Watch the Best Documentary Feature Nominees:

From Italian director Gianfranco Rosi, Fire at Sea tackles the current refugee crisis in Europe, centered around the island of Lampedusa, which has welcomed migrants in masses.

The film already has a major recognition to its name: it was the first documentary, ever, to win the top prize at the Berlin International Film Festival (aka, the Golden Bear).

The nomination is Rosi and producer Donatella Palermo’s first. While the DVD won’t be available for purchase until March, it can be streamed now on Amazon Live Video and on iTunes.

I Am Not Your Negro

Based around 30-pages of unpublished letters written by late American novelist James Baldwin, I Am Not Your Negro explores the current status of race relations in the U.S.

Baldwin’s original, unfinished manuscript notes were biographies of civil rights leaders like Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. The film is narrated by Samuel L. Jackson, and directed by Raoul Peck.

I Am Not Your Negro is currently in theaters. Check your local listings or search for screenings through the documentary’s website.

Owen Suskind, an autistic man who was once unable to communicate verbally, learned to talk to his family through Disney animated films – Life, Animated, from director Roger Ross Williams, tells his story.

Williams is a previous Academy Award winner: he won Best Documentary Short in 2010 for Music by Prudence.

Life, Animated is available to watch on demand through YouTube, iTunes, Amazon Prime, Vudu and Google Play.

It has been over two decades since the conclusion of the O.J. Simpson murder trial, but the public is still fascinated by the former star football player.

O.J.: Made in America covers the gamut of Simpson’s life, starting with a history of L.A. race relations and ending with the onetime celebrity, convicted of armed robbery and kidnapping, and moldering in prison.

Directed by Ezra Edelman and from ESPN, the documentary is a whopping 10-hours long, and can be streamed in three parts on Hulu and five parts on Watch ESPN.

Directed by Ava DuVernay, 13TH draws on the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, which abolished slavery.

Yet, racial inequality continued in America. 13TH explores the history of racism in America, with particular focus on the disproportionate number of black men and women incarcerated in U.S. prisons.

Good news: all you need is a Netflix account to watch 13TH.

How to Watch the Best Documentary Short Nominees:

Following patients, their families and their doctors, Extremis explores the complexity and intensity of end-of-life decisions. Set at a hospital, the 24-minutes long short comes from Dan Krauss, a previous Academy Award nominee.

Extremis is currently streaming on Netflix.

This 2016 short documentary follows – according to its description – “a coast guard captain on a small Greek island [who] is suddenly charged with saving thousands of refugees from drowning at sea.”

The 22-minute film from Daphne Matziaraki – like several other of the 2017 documentary nominees – explores one aspect of the Syrian refugee crisis.

Matziaraki told The Mercury News that she will bring the coast guard captain – Kyriakos Papadopoulos – as her date on Sunday, calling him “the ultimate hero.”

4.1 Miles can be streamed for free on the New York Times website.

According to the short’s website, in Joe’s Violin “a donated musical instrument forges an improbable friendship between 91-year-old Holocaust survivor Joe Feingold and 12-year-old Bronx school girl Brianna Perez.”

Feingold donated his violin to an instrument drive for public school students sponsored by N.Y.C.’s radio station WQXR. He traded a carton of cigarettes for the violin after World War II while in a camp for displaced persons, said Variety.

The film can be watched now through the New Yorker‘s The Screening Room.

Watani: My Homeland follows one Syrian family for three years – covering their escape from their home of Aleppo in the war-torn country to their eventual search for a new life in Germany.

Hala Kami, who is profiled in the film, will be attending the Oscars on Sunday, Deadline confirmed. Her attendance was in question after the initial implementation of President Trump’s controversial travel ban, which stopped travel to America from Syria, among other Middle Eastern countries.

The short is still in theaters. Find a screening, here.

The White Helmets is a volunteer organization of Syrians who visit scenes of bombings to save those trapped in the rubble or injured by the blasts. The documentary short follows a team of White Helmets rescuers.

Much like Watani: My Homeland‘s subjects, the White Helmets team leader profiled in the documentary was originally unsure if he could attend this year’s ceremony in the wake of the travel ban because of his Syrian nationality. The film’s cinematographer, Khaled Khateeb, is also Syrian.

Both men said in a statement last week, however, that they will be able to attend, although Khateeb was barred from entering the country on Friday en route to the awards.

“It will give us an important platform for the voices of Syrian children and women trapped under the rubble as a result of the airstrikes and artillery shelling, and for the voices of thousands of displaced Syrians who have been forced from their homes,” Raed Saleh said.

The White Helmets is currently streaming on Netflix.

The Academy Awards kicks off live on ABC on Sunday, Feb. 26, with a 7 p.m. ET pre-show and 8:30 p.m. ceremony.

According to reports, the new feature is said to be the "SnoozeTabs" feature which might not be something new as many email apps do come with such a feature. However, it looks like FireFox also wants to bring in such feature to its browser and essentially deliver better user experience.

As for the new SnoozeTabs feature, it basically shuts down a tab, only to open it back at a later time. So using this new feature, the Firefox user will be able to snooze any tab up to a specified time, and later this tab will then open in the background tab at the mentioned time without causing any interruption.

SEE ALSO: Mozilla just unveiled their brand new logo: Moz://a

Talking about the benefits of the feature, the Firefox SnoozeTabs will definitely help in managing tabs better, and it will be more useful for those users who work with multiple tabs on their browser. Additionally, NDTV reports that this feature will also allow users to remember important chores that they want to keep for later.

How to activate it?

Users will be able to see a bell icon on the top-right of Firefox. Clicking it will allow users to choose a time when they want the tab to return. Various options are also provided for users like later today, tomorrow, this weekend, next week, next month, for easy configuration. After choosing the option, the tab will go away until the time specified, at which point the tab will load in the background tab.

SEE ALSO: Google Chrome adds new feature that supports VR content on the web

Firefox is currently testing these features, but according to the reports that we are hearing the stable version should also arrive soon. Besides, if users do want to try out the SnoozeTabs feature right away, they can do so by activating Mozilla's Test Pilot extension. This extension will allow users to try out various experimental features before they arrive on the stable channel.
