He is an Academy Award winner for "One Day in September", a documentary about the famous Munich Olympics massacre. He was also praised for "Touching the Void" and "Life in a Day". A versatile talent, Macdonald has made three popular dramas: "The Last King of Scotland", "State of Play" and "The Eagle". His latest film, "Marley", an ambitious take on the life, music and legacy of Bob Marley, has met with general acclaim.
