A heads up for the Tyson fans (Cannes festival documentary)
Just letting you guys know,
The new Tyson Documentary shown at Cannes Film Festival comes out June 16th,
I ordered mine from Play.com already

The life of Mike Tyson on film | Features | guardian.co.uk Film
(removed my play link as i think it was wrong)
Re: A heads up for the Tyson fans (Cannes festival documentary)
i dont think that one on the link for play.com is the right one, it says it was made in 1995 if you check the details, and also has michael jai-white in it so i think thats more a film of his life ( as apposed to an actual documentary) , they probably have them mixed up i would think and hopefully its is the documentary out on the 16th
Re: A heads up for the Tyson fans (Cannes festival documentary)
interesting! so is it a documentory about his life from early on to now or is it like a documentory of his current life with all the ups and downs mostly downs unfotunately

ah nice spot!
I removed my link incase people order the wrong one,
I think your right though that they have just mixed it up, why would something made in 1995 come out now ? unless it is a vhs to dvd release.. also a bit coincidental that it comes out on the 16th , same as the other one
Re: A heads up for the Tyson fans (Cannes festival documentary)
hmm... checked quite a few sites and I think it is the 1995 one coming out on the 16th :(
if someone finds a link to buy the 2008 Cannes one let me know !
Re: A heads up for the Tyson fans (Cannes festival documentary)
I read that it was extremely well received when screened at the Cannes festival, apparently it got a major standing ovation.. I'm quite interested to see it, I've always thought a movie/documentary based on Tysons rise and fall could be excellent if done well.
Re: A heads up for the Tyson fans (Cannes festival documentary)
Mike Tyson has been so publicized and so many books and mini documentaries have been done on him I do not know if there is really anything left to tell.
Same story different light is all I suppose.
I would give it a good watch though. If it is about boxing and a former world champion especially I can not resist.

True , but something cool about this one is that it is completely told in his own words,
much like Beyond the glory I Know, but still... to make it to cannes festival i think it is going ot have that something special
