I am so jealous.

Changed their world.
Wow, that’s more than “First Man” had earned in total domestic rev in many weeks. I’m so glad that Canuck Gosling and his crappy acting skills flamed out.
A sanitized Freddie, but entertaining. He struggled with his homosexuality, and the film seemed to portray that honestly.
They didn’t make him to be a “hero” because of his behaviour. And the music is awesome. The timeline is compressed, not really accurate, but that is to be expected.
I did see them in concert as a teenager back in November of 1977. The "News of the World" tour. They were playing the old Boston Garden. They did put on a great show.
And occasionally a mass shooting.
I’m jealous! Never saw them until after Freddy died, saw them with the lead from bad company, at the Hollywood Bowl, it was still awesome.
By his own admission, Freddie was omni-sexual. He said he’d sleep with anything, men, women, cats, ....
I find it interesting that the film starred and ethnic Egyptian portraying an ethnic Indian but most everybody thinks the both of them are/were white.
Go see it, great movie.
They briefly touched on his life of debauchery, but concentrated on his music and his band, I thought it was well balanced.
A gay bar fest would have turned me off. Besides he was much more than that
It is not a positive portrayal of the homosexual lifestyle.
Wow... interesting. No wonder the film critics panned it.
The music is great and Rami Malek deserves the Best Actot Academy Award for this portrayal of Freddie, but won’t get it because the movie didn’t portray gayness as all rainbows and unicorns.
Rami Malek just won the Best Actor Golden Globe and Bohemian Rhapsody just won Best Picture. ;-)
I still haven’t seen it! I don’t get out much. Hopefully it will soon be on streaming somewhere.
I am pleased and surprised. Let’s see what happens with the Oscars.
