The Double Life of George Michael (2018x39)

: 21, 2018

This documentary looks at the the life of one of Britain's greatest pop stars. How could he have been so carefree and so troubled at the same time? George Michael was adored by millions, but died alone on Christmas Day 2016. He led an extraordinary life beset by contradictions - from soaring highs to crashing lows. In the last ten years of his life, he became known for his run-ins with the press as much as for his music. So what was the cause of this? This film uncovers the story of one man who lived two lives - a wonderful human being with a fabulous talent, and a self-confessed tortured soul battling inner demons.
