Freddie did not destroy the band by leaving to do a solo album. In fact, he was the THIRD member to do a solo album. Roger Taylor Brian May had already done solo albums and returned to the band. When Freddie announced he would do a solo album it was understood by all bandmates that Freddie would return, so no one was mad as was portrayed in the film.

@@daisyperegrino6380 First, Freddie's solo album was recorded during 1983-1984 while Queen was on hiatus (i.e. - taking a break from recording/touring). Therefore, he didn't go to his bandmates and have a contentious meeting where his bandmates ended up hating him because he was destroying Queen as was portrayed in the film. Second, the reason most people who are part of a band do a solo album is to explore other musical styles that are not consistent with the vision of the band. Direct quote from Freddie, "I had a lot of ideas bursting to get out and there were a lot of musical territories I wanted to explore which I really couldn't do within Queen." Also, here is a quote from Brian May: Oddly Brian recently said his favorite scene in that movie is something that never even happened in reality. Sir Brian said: “My favourite moment is when Freddie is plucking up the courage to tell us he’s going off to do his solo album. It’s a wonderful piece of acting - and a lot of that wasn’t in the script. . . But we fought for that scene to stay in, because the realism of it is quite gut-wrenching. That was a difficult moment for us. It’s Freddie kinda leaving his family.” We all know Freddie had no intention of leaving Queen & never did. It took him so long to finish Mr. Bad Guy because he had Queen commitments that he put first.

The 20th Century Fox fanfare was written and performed by Brian & Roger. That is the original Smile, Tim Staffell, Roger & Brian, reuniting to perform "Doin" Alright" in the opening scene. Tim went on to have a successful career in visual arts as a designer, sculptor, illustrator, animator and commercial director.

As said elsewhere in comments; Great movie despite the inaccuracies. Guitarist Brian May has said of their Live Aid performance; "We did have an unfair advantage. We had done football stadiums. Freddie, particularly, learned this magical way of involving everybody. In a huge football stadium, he could make everybody feel that they were in contact.” It is also rumoured that as David Bowie walked past Freddie as he went on stage to follow Queen he said to Freddie "How the F' am I meant to follow that?" Another quote I have heard is "The greatest instrument Freddy could play was the audience." All of Queen are notable outside of music as well with Sir Brian May being a published astrophysicist that has work with NASA.

ALL biographical films have made up scenes to make the film "more entertaining". "Rocket Man" about Elton John did the same thing. If you don't like that, then just stay away from biographical films.

I believe Mary brought home their first cat when she and Freddie were a young couple. Mary did keep the cats as Freddie left her his estate (and partial royalties). She lived there until last year; the home is now for sale and Freddie's belongings were auctioned off by Sotheby's. Freddie's life and the story of Queen is interesting enough without the fake Hollywood dramatization.

@RiverSong5683 14 дней назад

This movie was very good, but not actually factually accurate. Freddie never left the group, they used to take breaks when they knew they needed to be away from each other for awhile, and Roger and Brian had more solo projects than Freddie in the early days until Freddie finally git his solo album done in 1986, it took a few YEARS because of his commitment to Queen. And towards the end of his life, they were super close. Freddie did an album for/with Montserrat Caballe’, a famous soprano opera singer., a dream of his. And he knew Roger and Brian before becoming part of the group, actually worked in a shop with Roger before that lead singer left and Freddie became part of the the group. They were going to just split up, but he was the driving force keeping them together those first five years. On an on it’s inaccurate, in fact, Freddie was very shy offstage. It was also the recording company that mentioned his teeth, or the manager. Thank God it didn’t keep him back. RIP you gorgeous person, being, soul, Freddie.

Remember Wayne's World?? Mike Myers' cameo in the movie was a nod to Wayne's World. Legend has it, the director of Wayne's World wanted to play a different song other than BoRhap. Mike Myers stood firmly and said no. They said yes. He threatened to quit. They caved because Mike Myers WAS Wayne's World. They sent Freddie a copy of the scene before he died and supposedly he loved it. When Myers says "a song teenagers can bang their heads to," that was a reference to the BoRhap scene in Wayne's World where the 5 of them banged their heads to the song.

Guys, you should go ahead and react to Queen at live aid. You can see how close the movie was or wasn't. The band never broke up or took an extensive break...a little creative licence. And, Freddy didn't get diagnosed unt 87, I think. They stopped touring after 86. 🙂

@isoldejaneholland8370 15 дней назад

Paul Prenter actually died before Freddie did. People don't realize that there are many different strains of the AIDS virus, some way more aggressive and virulent than others, and unfortunately for Freddie, he had one of the worst. So it's very likely that he originally contracted it from Paul Prenter. (In fact, Jim Hutton lived on until 2011 and died of lung cancer completely unrelated to AIDS.) For comparison, basketball player Magic Johnson was diagnosed about the same time as Freddie, and not only is he still alive today, but he looks as healthy as a horse.

@ChrissonatorOFL День назад

Well, AIDS itself isn't a virus, HIV or Human Immunodeficiency Virus is actually 2 viruses that can result in someone developing AIDS or Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. :) In fact, not all carriers are infected, some are just carriers. It was something else seeing Freddie's last performance, he was so frail, but still as radiant.

Freddie did not have to come crawling back to the band so they could play Live Aid as was portrayed in the film. They were together and were actually doing a world tour when Bob Geldof announced Live Aid. Geldof (incorrectly) assumed that all British musicians would GLADLY perform for free at his charity event. Queen declined the offer because they were on the road for a year and wanted to go home and relax and spend time with their families. Geldof went on British TV and shamed all British musicians who declined to perform. Queen was scheduled for a 6:30pm timeslot because they and their type of rock music were not that popular in 1985. Since they were fresh off of a world tour they played with the energy a 2-hour Queen show in their 20+ minute Live Aid performance. All other musicians who performed before and after them gave a 10% effort because they were performing for free.

I don't know the accuracy of this interpretation of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' but I have seen a video that said it was Freddy's "Coming Out" song where he had come to accept who he was & decided to be who he was meant to be. The lines "Mama, just killed a man, Put a gun against his head, Pulled my trigger, now he's dead" refers to I have stopped pretending I am what I am not, from now I am a new man. With the lines "Mama, ooh, Didn't mean to make you cry, If I'm not back again this time tomorrow, Carry on, carry on, As if nothing really matters" meaning I didn't want to hurt you but I am who I am, please forgive me & if you can't it's not your fault, please get on with your life & don't worry about me.

RE: The scene on the early BBC appearance. My career was media. Mostly in TV, but I started in radio when I was a teen. One of my heroes was BBC DJ John Peel. You could catch replays of his domestic radio show in the US on BBC's shortwave service. When he started in the 1960s, the BBC had a rule that was meant to improve working conditions for union musicians - you couldn't play an artist's original recording, you had to hire someone else to play it. John's genius was that he'd hire * the actual band * at union scale wages to re-record their own songs, and he'd play those recordings instead. BBC had very strange rules about music performances back then. John's been gone for about 20yrs now, and music historians and archivists still marvel at how innovative his idea was. Not all of the 4,000 (estimated) recordings exist, but many do. Here's his session with Queen in 1973. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fP-xqI7Jwlo.html

The way they won over the Live Aid crowd is even more remarkable when you remember that this wasn't a "Queen" crowd. They were an eclectic mix of music fans. Queen were not only considered past it by many but they also had the stigma of having broken the UN apartheid boycott by playing at Sun City in 1984 - even though they had insisted the crowd be racially integrated. So they were really up against it yet still came away having stole the show completely. The staging of the day in the film was *so* well done. On the BluRay release you can see they actually filmed the whole set but only uised a fraction in the feature. There are also YT comparisons that show how perfectly choreographed the movie and the archive footage was.

@shadowfrost__ 15 дней назад

This is a good movie, despite the massive inaccuracies. The movie is maybe 40 percent accurate and that is being generous. Nearly everything is wrong; how the band formed, the timeline songs were recorded, Queen had reunited a full year before live aid and had just finished a tour promoting their new album The Works, and perhaps the most egregious inaccuracy is that Freddie's AIDS diagnoses was two years after live aid and it was another two years after that that he told the band. Most of the inaccuracies in the movie are the direct result of Brian May, and Roger Taylor being executive producers of the movie, they wanted the movie to be more of a celebration of Queen's legacy than a factual story about the band. In fact it was this altered retelling the caused Sascha Baron Cohen to walk away from the role of Freddie Mercury. He had been working on getting this movie made for 6 years prior quitting because he wanted a warts and all story of Freddie and the band, but May and Taylor wanted the story to be about how the band overcame Freddie's bad behavior and persevered after his death.

@ellet6560 14 дней назад

Cohen stated that a "band member", (he wouldn't say who), expected that Freddie's death would occur in the middle of the movie then it was to play out with Queen carrying on. I believe it was a Howard Stern interview. I commend Brian and Roger for their commitment (and success) with Queen+ but I question their motives in approving certain obvious falsehoods for the movie.
