Michael Jackson

alg_jacko_rehearsalI am not yet certain how I feel about this release as it’s soooo soon.  It’s focused on his rehearsals for his come-back tour and consequently the last few months of his life.  Only going to be released in theaters and for a run time of a mere two-weeks!  My conflict: I can see the logic behind providing a space where he gets to give his final performance in some medium however, is it further capitalizing on the life and now death of a man who never experienced anything other than a life under a scrutinizing public spotlight?  And the two-week theater exclusive has such a gimmick vibe!   Your thoughts?
