Rare Captain EO behind the scenes

This was truly a delight to watch. To quote Angelica, he was adorable here. But so was she-just gorgeous.
I wish it were 1985/1986 again.
 
Michael Jackson Rehearses for Captain Eo Film Dance Scenes in 1985
July 29, 2024
Michael on set rehearsing with breakdancers for a scene in the film Captain EO, directed by Francis Ford Coppola. There is one detail in the photos that indicates these photos are of rehearsals and not actual filming. Do you know what it is?

He's not wearing the white sneakers but his black loafers.
 
What are the chances that a version of 'WAHTCTW' exists that has more verses..? Would make sense to record a longer version for a OST or something..?
 
Amazingly good post by the Estate - I'm shocked.

Really cool pics.

They are nice, indeed. I'm still wondering though why they don't use their = Michael's photo archive, instead licensing photos from photo agencies. These photos weren't taken by Emerson (you can spot him standing next to Emmanuel Lewis) but by a member of the production company. I acquired these photos like a decade ago but they were just recently listed on Getty. Whatever, still nice photos (but flipped).

Iwish they gave insight about the photos. It does look odd with black loafers looking at it now but I know he wore them under white reebok. I've never seen eo in this quality so I can imagine what it would look like in true 4k....I dont understand what's taking the estate so long to give us the shorts on 4k.... GOD 🤦🏿‍♂️
 
There are more photos on Getty images from the photographer.
