Your my best friend

Rating: 10/10 (24 January 2019)

This film has been misunderstood by many critics expecting it to share Freddie Mercury's homosexual lifestyle with precise timelines which would have made it a less favourable direction for a story, what we witness is a bitesize skipping through timelines of the fantastic journey of the band Queen with its charismatic front man Freddie Mercury. This made me feel I was there travelling through time watching their rise to greatness as one of the best rock bands we will ever see and a band that captures the imagination of old and new generations of music lovers, it's timeless in its delivery and despite inaccuracies that many seem to point out at a whim, I found myself becoming Freddie best friend willing him on and comforting his moments of losing faith in himself, I just found myself loving a person by the end who was the genius of the music that will be played for many generations to come. The acting surely is the success of this movie and the tears evidence that this legend surely won the hearts of many, Freddie showed a complex character in many ways but his inspiration was the love he couldn't be true to and the main influence on his life Mary, this was fundamental to the story right to the end.
