*********************************

Just posted these images over in Golden History era thread but realised it makes sense to post them here, also, but more as a question mark.

There are very few examples of journalists asking Michael about his work in any meaningful way - so much emphasis on Thriller, so little interest in anything else - so there's no way to know if this is just sheer co-incidence or if Michael (or his director, Nick Brandt) was inspired by the film or by this poster. Michael would have been aware of the film, I'm sure of that, so it would be interesting to know what thoughts he had about it.
