It's a documentary of his life with Mike narrating, showing Friday as part of the london film festival. More for the DVD market I'd guess.
Mike got a standing ovation at Cannes when he showed up for the screening

The trailer is here -

It's showing on Friday at 18:30 ODEON WEST END 1 if anyone wants a sneak peek. I don't think it's being officially released for a while? Reviews I've seen have been good.

Do you have to book tickets in advance or can you just turn up & pay!

I hope he is clear in his speaking, cause he talks so quiet these days - infact is a bit reminscent of Ali in say 1978.

It was well received in Cannes, glad the london film festival picked it up.

Looks like you can get them off the site. It might be worth trying to blag a press pass, though. Depends whatr other films are on. For instance, if the Bond premiere is the same night, you will easily get in as the journos will be going to that.
