George Michael: mon histoire

I've rediscovered George Michael in 2023 after seeing an old interview with him on Hard Talk about the Iraq war. I've practically listened to every interview I can listen to view for free on YouTube and still couldn't get enough.

This documentary exposes emotions and perspectives I hadn't seen before on George. I love that Mr. Michael was heavily involved making it more honest and personal. It's worth listening to the press briefing and his answers to journalists. Very insightful. Especially on his views on current and past musicians trying to break through the corporate mile.

The fact that it was made nearly 20 years ago leaves you wanting more.

I saw this film in "istanbul independent film festival". So called "!f Film festival" It was a wonderful experience to witness the life of one of the biggest voice of our time.. I'm very touched by his intimacy while he is explaining his very personal secrets. About his lover Anselmo and losing him because of his Aids illness.. And his comments about his sexuality.. His childhood.. Being famous and under public eye..

One of the most touching documentaries I have ever seen, I have always been touched by other people's life stories and this is one of best... Comments From Sting,Elton John, Mariah Carey, Pepsi & Shirley, David Austin, AndrewRidgeley, His Father and His Latest Love of his life.. .. If you have a chance to see it..Don't miss it..

I used to love George Michael but after this film I love him more than ever..

I'm from France. This documentary was released only yesterday in Paris in a couple of theaters! I've always been a fan since the Wham period so being able to see and hear Pepsi, Shirley and Andy Ridgeley comments brought me 20 years back when I used to sing and dance along with them. This documentary is like a long interview, a confession. George explains who he is, what he did and why he did it. Comments from other artists who like him or dislike him make the film even more exciting. Once you leave the theater you understand clearly that George is not only a great singer but also a sensitive and honest one! This film was more than necessary as we heard about him only from journalists in people magazines. We never knew who he really was. Thank you George for clarifying! Now, I hope you're ready to tour coz you have not been in France for almost 15 years now! Just one thing though, the film would have been a great TV film too! No need to be released on the big screen!

This documentary was extremely well done. George Michael goes against his own nature and opens up for an extremely intimate look into his extraordinary life. It's very easy to see him as a punch line, given all the media coverage of his flounders and mess ups...but after you see him in this very intimate portrait, you'll gain a greater respect for the man who is George Michael. He's not just a cute face...he's an extremely gifted songwriter, performer, and vocalist. I was especially touched by his opening up about the loss of his partner, Anselmo, and how he discovered love again after such a tragedy. George Michael has changed the face of music as we know it.

I am a fan. I went to see the film with someone who is not a fan; like many others in attendance. The film was well done. It featured comments from those who know him and love him and from those who don't like him at all. He charmingly tells a story of success, personal failure and finally personal success; All the while gaining respect from those who may not like him. Lots of unseen Wham! footage.Great music. I think the film will surprise a people who think they know his story. He speaks in detail about his childhood, Wham!, confusion, Sony, insecurity, love loss, and the future.You'll find yourself saying--I had no idea. Funny, smart, Charming, sad and bittersweet. Thoroughly entertaining. Well done, George.
