The Boy Next Door: A Profile of Boy George

1993

50 minutes

Documentary

Overview

Mark Kidel's portrait of Boy George is a hypnotic story of narcissism and neediness, drugs and drag. It covers nine years, from Culture Club's sudden success through George's rebirth as a solo celeb. Along the way there's tons of amazing archive footage, some very queer fashions, a gripping interview with his ex, Jon Moss and a sign of salvation.
