Tyson ’embarrassed’
This week, Mike Tyson will fly to the south of France for the Cannes Film Festival, where a new documentary about his life, “Tyson,” will premiere. The film, which interposes interviews of Tyson conducted last year, while he was in rehab, with fight clips, has forced Tyson to relive and reconsider a life that shames him. “I look at it now, and I’m embarrassed I did it,” he said recently. “There’s a lot of information people didn’t need to know.”
