re: Michael was such a great movie

quote:

I found credible evidence that he committed crimes against children—crimes I believe he got away with. He was never criminally convicted, he and his estate have paid $43.5 million in settlements to the families of children who accused him of abuse. And now, in a movie that is supposedly an examination of his life, it isn’t even a footnote.

But this is what I know: His tactics to silence were violent and cruel; his ego and sense of entitlement so inflated that he demanded humanitarian awards be presented to him before personal appearances, frequently invoking his devotion to emulating Christ-like purity.

Who wants to know his evil while dancing at a wedding to “Billie Jean?” Personally, I hate it when people come up to me and say, “Did Michael Jackson really do all those things?”

I spent a long time investigating and wrote 50,000 words to be able to say the answer is yes—but even in death, Michael can still control the narrative.
