Advance Clips for Michael Jackson’s Documentary Released

Posted by Sara Harowitz on October 22nd, 2009

Michael JacksonMichael Jackson was in the midst of planning his sold-out comeback shows in London when his untimely death shocked the world. But thanks to a film crew that documented the rehearsals, the world will once again be able to fall in love with the King of Pop. And now fans can start to get excited, because Sony Pictures has released four preview clips from “This Is It” to the media, reports MTV News.

The clips have been released to help promote the documentary, that will be out on Oct. 28.

MTV News describes the four clips:

“‘Human Nature’ — Making comments like ‘something there,’ Michael choreographs his dance moves for a performance of ‘Human Nature,’ the fifth hit single off his 1983 Thriller album. As he points and does some of his signature footwork, the band kicks in behind him with the beloved tune.

‘Human Nature Extended’ — A longer version of the earlier clip, this one cuts Michael’s footage with shots of his backing musicians, then extends into a shot of MJ performing in front of a lit stage, making it seem as though we’re in the crowd watching the legendary performer in concert.

‘The Way You Make Me Feel’ — ‘I’ve gotta cue that; I’ve gotta cue that,’ Michael insists to the people helping him design the stage show. ‘That can’t trigger on its own.’ The footage then cuts to shots of silhouetted backup dancers as ‘The Way You Make Me Feel’ kicks in on the soundtrack. Wearing a hat and black armband, Michael watches a female backup dancer strut past, then begins singing out the love song to her. His exaggerated motions invoke the playful, quick-on-his-feet MJ we all remember from his ’80s heyday.

‘They Don’t Care About Us’— ‘There’s the man,’ you can hear a crewmember’s voice saying as MJ walks onto a soundstage. ‘There’s Michael.’ Looking over a storyboard, Michael says, ‘That’s a cool move — we spread out at the end.’ We then see Michael teaching his backup crew some basic steps, as sound effects sneak in to beef up the action. The effects carry us into a cool, ‘Unplugged’-like version of ‘Bad’ that is cut with footage of MJ and the dancers on various stages, banging out the routine. The number then flows into a rap-like take on ‘They Don’t Care About Us,’ from MJ’s HIStory album.”

“This Is It” could very well turn out to be the comeback that originally died with Jackson. The film is one last hurrah – one last chance for the world to embrace, and say goodbye, to one of the most legendary performers of our time.

“This Is It” opens in limited engagement on Oct. 27 and everywhere on Oct. 28.
