WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, MY FRIEND…la, la, la…
Well, tonight, mama and papa and a friend finally watched Bohemian Rhapsody and were in tears by the end of this magnificent film. If Rami Malek does not win the Oscar, mama says she is never going to watch the Oscars again, even for the wild clothes, haha.
What an actor! And what a voice, even though it is a composite of a Candadian singer and the real Freddy with a bit of Malek mixed in. I sat with them during the film because they wanted me to see Romeo, the tabby, and all the other felines that lived with Freddy Mercury, but I was so wrapped up in the music I couldn’t pay much attention to those movie kitties. Where did they FIND this amazing actor with such an incredible lip-synching ability?
Well, enjoy the Live Aid Concert link…
I’m just hoping they don’t give the Oscar to one of Freddy’s kitties–it’s Rami Malek who is the cat’s meow!
Do you think a kitty could learn to sing like that? Oh, boy…
We need to watch that movie ! Purrs
Wonderful music and such a great group. What a loss, with Freddy gone.
My sister, a great fan of Freddie Mercury, said I MUST watch Bohemian Rhapsody.
But you now say there is a movie AND a documentary.
Must I watch both? Or maybe only the docu?
Loulou, I need your guidance. Thanks.
DO NOT MISS BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY. Then see the documentary. This is the advice of Mya’s mama who saw the doc first. But do not miss the film. So moving. Not accurate, the critics say, but so beautifully done. I think critics are only happy when something or someone blows up, the characters are mean, sex is over the top, etc. Real films are going out of style, just like quality in clothing, and more….you’ll love this actor.
Many thanks.
Agree with your general comments.
Merci, Ralphe. We can disagree, too. Sometimes more interesting, no?
Oooh, Mama liked that one too!! But it was actually Freddie Mercury who sang and Rami lip-synced! Nobody could duplicate Freddie’s fabu voice, so why even try!?! Now watch the Freddie Mercury documentary – and you will be wowed. Mama says she should have seen the movie first, since the documentary was soooo strong it took a bit of the edge away from the film. And there’s that Barcelona duo with Montserrat Caballé that is mind-blowing (find on you-tube). Ooooh – gotta listen to that again NOW!!!!!
Well, I had just adjusted my blog when I read your mama’s facts and yes, Malek did not sing all but there was a mix of Malek, a Canadian wonder who can duplicate Freddy’s voice very well and a little of Malek. We going to find the documentary NOW!
I need to see that.
Well, the movie was NOT liked by critics but mama has little esteem for some critics…
