Freddie Mercury: The Great Pretender
- Director: Rhys Thomas
CGiii Comment
It claims to be intimate but...nothing seen in front of a camera is intimate.
Freddie chose to show what he wanted people to see...
This profile does go a little further than most, time loosens lips - friends recount their memories for public consumption - obviously, editing out the less-savoury bits.
Having met Freddie...the less-savoury bits are something to feast upon.
Still and always, Freddie will be missed...there's no point in trying to find out who the real Freddie was - just let his music speak...because it speaks for itself.
