This movie was on VH1 last night. The guy who played Michael Jackson from the mid 70's to 80's, his real name is Wylie Draper & he died in 93 of leukemia. This movie was made in 92 & he died right after. That is so sad. I had no idea. He played Michael Jackson so well. He had his dance moves down pat & he looked just like how Michael was at that age. I like the part in the movie when he does the Billie Jean song at that Motown 25th anniversary special. He did a good job of doing Michael's dance moves, facial expressions, hand movements, moonwalk. He must've really studied some old Michael Jackson videotapes. I love this movie. I can watch it over & over again cause i was one of the biggest Jacksons fans back in the day. I wish i would've known this movie was coming on VH1 yesterday so i could've taped it. Does anybody know if this movie is coming back on VH1 anytime soon? I wanna buy the movie.
