Poignantly Perfect

Rating: 9/10 (6 June 2019)

Not what I expected, but, what a movie!
Taron Egerton and two younger actors do a spectacular job telling, singing and dancing the story of Elton John. And, it's a truly poignant story that goes way beyond sex, drugs and rock and roll to explore how the man became Elton John the superstar, and later Sir Elton John.
It's a visceral telling, sparing no detail and barely balancing the bad with the good. We walked out somewhat shell shocked, and very glad to have gone.
