hello, this is the rock layman who is here to seduce you to spend money to the cinema!
Of course, I am not a rock fan, so I can't say too much professionalism, it's just a pure viewer's perspective.
About last Friday, this movie has been flooding the screen in the circle of friends. People who are about the same age as me, or who are 5 to 10 years older than me, are crazy recommendations that must be read IMAX.
As of yesterday, the global box office of " Bohemian Rhapsody " has reached an amazing US$870 million (about 5.9 billion yuan), successfully ranked sixth in the global box office list in 2018, becoming the most popular biopic in history.
However, this movie is basically in a state where film critics are not optimistic about it, but fans strongly recommend it.
Even if you don't know Queen QUEEN (yes, I really don't know haha), it doesn't affect you watching this movie. Because when you hear the soundtrack in the movie, you will suddenly realize, oh~ It turns out it is their song.
A rock layman can be influenced by this rock band of the last century, which shows the influence of this band or the songs of this band.
Let’s spoil it out first. It’s really simple, the easiest time in history.
The entire storyline is the Wikipedia movie version of Queens, a chronological biographical movie with lead singer Freddy Mockley as the main line, telling the story from Queens’ birth to his heyday.
A Pakistani boy Freddy who was carrying luggage at the airport is the picture. Uncle buck teeth joined the unknown band "smile" in the bar workshop by chance. Soon after, bassist John Deakin also joined the band, and the Queen band "queen" was born.
Freddy debuted in a bar for the first time, nervous and embarrassed, but when he pulled the microphone cable, he let it go and began his own unique style of performance. In an instant, the crowd in the bar went crazy, including Freddy's love for his life - Mary. Freddy always says that he is a performer, so I want to use performance haha. Put the emotional line backwards, drag the ones you want to know backwards.
sold the pot and got the opportunity to record songs. Freddy and the band members were creative in the recording studio, having a lot of fun, and unexpectedly signed a contract with EMI, followed the BBC TV station, and then became popular.
When it came to the album "Opera Night", the whole band began to go abnormal again and created "Bohemian Rhapsody". In order to record a high note of "Galileo", the scene of Freddy and drummer Roger fighting each other was also very funny. Freddy even said that "there is only one neurotic queen in the Queen", that is, Roger. To be honest, Roger, with long golden hair, looked so beautiful that he didn't look like a Chinese paper at first glance.
However, the carefully produced main single "Bohemian Rhapsody" was denied because the TV station or radio station at that time would not play music for more than three minutes, and this song had six minutes.
However, Queens, which has always been ahead, finally chose a small radio station to play "Bohemian Rhapsody", and the single became popular.
Next, the entire band began to become internationally famous. Later, in order to allow fans to join in the music creation, the song "we will rock you" was created. It turns out that the brainwashing songs come from here. Are there any one who suddenly realized it like me?
Freddy is even more lonely inside. At the instigation of her assistant Paul, she finally goes solo and breaks up with the members of the Queens. After that, Freddy never made much progress in her creation, but her private life was once chaotic and eroded until she ended up having AIDS.
Freddy saw clearly that he seemed to know him well, but in fact he was consuming his assistant Paul. He finally returned to Queens and participated in a large rock concert of LIVE AID (Save Life).
This unprecedentedly great concert is hailed as the greatest performance of mankind to date.The big names of the night included Michael Jackson, Madonna, U2, Paul of the Beatles. McCartney , Bob . Dylan , etc.
Queen's popular songs gathered in this last climax. One of the most well-known masterpieces, "we are the champion", was also put to the end. The scene of a chorus of 100,000 people on the spot, coupled with the sexy moves and performances of Uncle Bucktooth, you can't help but feel like you're in tears just watching a movie.
Of course, this scene also highly restores the scene of the 1985 concert.
From the stage to the props, including the Pepsi position on the piano, is almost the same.
Even the unique and sexy moves on the scene are almost the same.
also worked very hard to restore the teasing and teasing of the camera.
Almost all the small movements and details are perfectly copied.
After watching the last paragraph, you will feel that it is probably not too much for Freddy to win the Oscar for Best Actor.
The bright line of this story is a time development line, while the other slightly darker story line is Freddy's personal emotional line. Freddy's personal ideals are incompatible with his original family, and even changed his real name for this. Of course, Fred got the understanding of his family in the end.
Freddy met his lifelong love and close friend in the bar, Mary. When he met again, he was already working in the clothing store where Mary worked. Freddy even had a special liking for women's clothing. This is also the foreshadowing of Freddy's sexual orientation.
Freddy's costumes were unique in every performance, and later she was boycotted by the United States because of wearing women's clothing. Just like the style of clothing, Freddy is also maverick. After proposing to Mary, for a long time, Freddy reexamined her inner emotions and realized another "color" in her body. She eventually broke up with Mary, but she was still a lifelong friend.
Leave the members of Queens. After leaving Mary, Freddy felt extremely lonely. There is another clip in the movie, where Freddy kept turning off the lights and turned on the lights in front of the window. It was his appointment with Mary, but Mary already had her own life.
↑↑↑↑ Is this bastard Paul above
Freddy is only assistant Paul, another gay man. Finally, Mary made Freddy realize how stupid her behavior was. At this time, Freddy probably knew that he had AIDS.
Following the main lines of the two stories, it came to the final life-saving concert.
Of course, in terms of Freddy's sexual orientation, the videos broadcast were handled very obscurely. Freddy, who lived alone, looked at Jim Hutton in a phone book and was a little confused. Even the gay man Jim Hutton who appeared hand in hand at the end seemed very abrupt. Including Freddy confessed to the band members that he had AIDS, the dubbing did not even give the line "AIDS".
video also castrated a lot of things for broadcast:
- Freddy played the piano, and the band's former agent Paul couldn't help but kiss Freddy, and was deleted;
- Freddy confessed to her beloved Mary that she thought she was bisexual, and was deleted;
- middle part of the video, Freddy held a luxurious party, and there was a beautiful woman riding a bicycle in her underwear, and was deleted;
- After the party, Freddy sat alone on the sofa and touched waiter Jim Hutton (that is, her later lover, the gay man holding hands inexplicably), and was deleted;
- end-credit subtitles introduction, in real life, Freddy and Jim finally lived together, and were deleted.
Although the narrative of the story is really lacking, it is better to read books of personal biographies, but for the climax of the last 20 minutes of the film, it is also worth buying a ticket to read it.
You can say that movies sell feelings, but this emotional amendment, I, a person who has no QUEEN sentiment, is willing to eat it.
has nothing to do with pretending, it’s just right to pay for money to watch a movie!
