While Michael wanted a separate identity of his own, it is the constant control of his father that is shown as a cause of some of Michael’s insecurities.
The documentary not just shows what made Jackson what he was, but also what backfired in the later years of his life. The film captures real life moments and some of it is dramatised to capture the Jackson story.įor eg a short sequence where the byte of a close person says Michael stayed away from school from a week and told his teacher’s later Oh I was doing shows in New York. The over one hour documentary delves deep into how Jackson who started off as a young talented and highly ambitious young lad broke away from what went down in the annuls of history as Jackson 5. The documentary ‘Michael Jackson – Man in the Mirror’, featuring longtime impersonator of MJ, Earnest Valentino was released in the UK on Channel 5 earlier this year. The film is also a testimony on how Michael saw some close people stabbing him when he was gaining a foothold in the music industry as a solo performer.
Michael Jackson – Man in the mirror, is a tell all commentary on how a troubled childhood along with some inner demons led to one of the biggest pop icons of all time’s fall from grace. With popularity comes the curse of being dissected at each stage to dig out hidden facets about a person.
