George Michael: Freedom - Director's Cut
This extended version of the moving and absorbing documentary about the life and music of George Michael makes for memorable viewing. Narrated by Michael, the director’s cut features more of his unseen and private footage as it charts his rise from young pop star with Wham!, on to worldwide success and his infamous High Court battle with his record label. Although only told from one side, George Michael’s honesty, intelligence and talent shines through. A powerful tribute to a great musician.
