Michael Jackson's Father Breaks Silence in Tell-All Documentary "Confessions of a Father"

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- GPA Entertainment announced today the pending release of an exclusive documentary featuring 84-year old Joe Jackson, father of pop icon Michael Jackson and self-proclaimed architect of the Jackson family musical empire. Confessions of a Father is compiled from hours of interviews conducted over a two-year period. The feature-length film will offer a fascinating and chilling look at one of the most controversial fathers in show business history. Told from Joe Jackson's unique perspective, the film will cover the Jackson family history from the formation of the Jackson 5 through Michael's tragic death and the subsequent trial and sentencing of his physician, Dr. Conrad Murray. The film's release is planned for 2012, as is the publication of "The Architect," Joe Jackson's autobiography from Atria Books, a division of Simon and Schuster.

Confessions of a Father is produced by Johnny West and award-winning producer George Paige, whose credits include "Michael Jackson...the Legend Continues," and scores of other TV programs and feature films. "For the first time, Joe Jackson lifts the veil and airs the dirty laundry, like it or not," says Paige. "If you think you know the Jackson history, think again."

Filmed partially on location at the Jackson family Havenhurst estate, the documentary will give viewers a never-before-seen look at Michael Jackson's personal theatre and the special room where the Jackson family and Michael's children were home schooled. "We filmed in Gary, Indiana too," says West, who also directed. "Seeing the Jackson house and hearing the voices of people who knew them before, during and after their rise to stardom sheds new light on this intriguing family."

Of special interest will be the newly uncovered audio recording of the Jackson 5 in their first ever studio session. "Big Boy" was recorded at Steel-town Records by Gordon Keith, who appears on camera to talk about guiding the dynamic young performers in those early sessions.

The documentary will have a theatrical release in 2012 before a nationwide home entertainment blu-ray and DVD release.

The trailer will be available shortly at www.jacksondocumentary.com.

La GPA Entertainment ha annunciato che a breve pubblicherà un documentario esclusivo con protagonista l'84enne Joe Jackson, nonchè padre del Re del Pop.

"Confessions of a Father" comprende ore d'interviste condotte in un periodo di due anni e fornisce un ritratto dettagliato di uno dei padri più controversi del mondo dello spettacolo.

Joe Jackson racconta la storia della famiglia Jackson, dalle sue origini fino ad arrivare alla tragica morte del figlio Michael con conseguente processo al Dr. Conrad Murray.

Il documentario verrà pubblicato per il 2012 in contemporanea al libro autobiografico di Joe, dal titolo "The Architect."
I produttori di "Confessions of a Father" sono Johnny West ed il pluripremiato George Paige che, in passato, ha già prodotto il noto documentario "Michael Jackson...the Legend Continues."

Girato in parte ad Havenhurst, il documentario mostrerà in esclusiva il cinema personale di MJ e la stanza in cui sia la famiglia Jackson che i figli di Michael venivano istruiti a casa.

Il documentario svelerà inoltre una vera e propria chicca, ovvero l'audio inedito della prima sessione dei Jackson 5 in uno studio di registrazione. Il pezzo in questione è "Big Boy" registrato, all'epoca, alla Steel-town Records di Gordon Keith il quale ricorderà la sua esperienza lavorativa con il giovane gruppo.

"Confessions of a Father" verrà inizialmente proiettato al cinema e successivamente pubblicato in DVD e blu-ray.
