I have seen the film twice now and have a feeling a third visit might be on he cards. I thought the casting for the band members was excellent (although Roger still looked 18 at age 40!) and all very believable. This was not a documentary but a piece of film entertainment so I for one are more than happy that some of the sleazier elements of Freddie's life were omitted. Being the age I am I still remember well that first TOTP performance (the furry jacket) and of course all 20 minutes of their show-stealing Live Aid slot so it really took me back.<br /><br />Bot of course as you so eloquently point out, whether the exotic Freddie Mercury or just an Ordinary Joe getting on with life, all we really need is the unconditional love of our family and a special friend. I'm glad Freddie had that before he died and although relatively young in years, he'd packed a few lifetimes into that short span - Not many Top Tens could be written referencing just one person, but as you have just proved, Freddie was definitely one of them.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Alysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671033552961486737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7633543688149775322.post-52534166639344030212018-11-09T00:35:53.447+00:002018-11-09T00:35:53.447+00:00I didn’t even know there was a solo album.
