Plot OutlineMichael Jackson Collection DVD

American superstar Michael Jackson was born in Gary Indiana in 1958 and has been entertaining audiences nearly his entire life. His father Joseph Jackson had been a guitarist but was forced to give up his musical ambitions following his marriage to Katherine (Scruse). Together they prodded their growing family's musical interests at home. By the early 60s the older boys Jackie Tito and Jermaine had begun performing around the city; by 1964 Michael and Marlon had joined in.
 
A musical prodigy Michael's singing and dancing talents were amazingly mature and he soon became the dominant voice and focus of "The Jackson 5." An opening act for such soul groups as the O-Jays and James Brown it was Gladys Knight (not Diana Ross) who officially brought the group to Berry Gordy's attention and by 1969 the boys were producing back-to-back chartbusting hits as Motown artists. As a product of the 70s the boys had emerged as one of the most accomplished black pop/soul vocal groups in music history successfully evolving from a Temptations-like group act to a disco phenomenon.
 
Solo success for Michael was inevitable and by the 80s he had become infinitely more popular than his brotherly group. Record sales consistently orbited culminating in the biggest-selling album of all time "Thriller." A TV natural he ventured rather uneasily into films such as playing the Scarecrow in The Wiz (1978/I) but had better luck with elaborate music videos.
 
In the 90s the down side as an 80s pop phenomenon began to show. Michael grew terribly child-like and introverted by his celebrity. A rather timorous androgynous figure to begin with his physical appearance began to change drastically and his behavior grew alarmingly bizarre making him a consistent target for scandal-making despite his numerous charitable acts. Two brief marriages -- one to Elvis Presley's daughter Lisa Marie Presley -- were forged and two children produced by his second wife during that time but the purposes were obviously image oriented. Despite it all Michael Jackson's skills as a singer dancer writer and businessman are unparalleled and it is these prodigious talents that will ultimately prevail over the extremely negative aspects of his seriously troubled life.
