Tyson

I went into this knowing very little about Mike Tyson's life. I emerge from this rather stunned and shaken by the stories he so freely told about his early life, all the trauma he endured, the great love he had for Cus D'Amato, and what it was like being champion at such a young age. The hatred he has for Desiree Washington and Dan King is palpable, as is, quite frankly, his level of disappointment (and frequent disgust) with himself. I was impressed with his intellect and how well spoken he was given how little education he had, and I hope that one day he can find peace within himself. A very provocative and thought-provoking documentary. 4/5
