Freddie Mercury - The Final Act

Please, wear a where can I buy this?? I loved it and would love to buy a few as presents to my friends and family who are Freddie Mercury and queen lovers. Been searching the Internet and can find it for sale nowhere. Please help!!

I won't give any spoilers; just want to write I'm so thankful for this (and trying to find re-air in US) as it felt I learned more about Freddie's truth... He seemed an angel for me as his music was so excellent; and I thought his bandmates and he were special relationships not many of us are lucky enough to have. To share their deepest feelings in this doc was proof of the love Brian, Freddie, John, and Roger, and others felt. Truly a great tribute to those we've lost... I want to add, in the early 90s when in the corp kitchen for morning coffee, the TV blasted that researchers found HIV and/or AIDS was NOT a "gay disease"; dishes clattered to tables and floors and gasps were heard... we all knew we all could fall to these diseases... and those who disparaged "gays" worried the most, I think...

Apart from all the wonderful work we have to ponder over, this honest documentary voices the truth from those closest to Freddie and how they closed ranks to protect him because they were all aware of his wishes.

A quote at the very end from a member of the band that "his music was his life" says it all. And yet this documentary is almost totally focused on AIDS and unrelated material having nothing to do with the band or his life and work. Of course being Gay and Aids was an important topic of any Freddie Biography but not then entire film.

I'll put the header as a warning !! This whole documentary is an emotional journey . When we look back now at those years and our very blinkered views . This was a heartwarming tribute to a wonderful singer songwriter that adored life and showed it . Taken far to early through nothing more than loving life If it doesn't put a lump in your throat and a tear in your eye !!

Queen have been in a lot of documentaries, but this one, about the last years of their frontman, Freddie Mercury, is brilliant. Reports and interviews about the rise and devastation of AIDS are interspersed with Mercury's sad journey of having to hide his illness and homosexuality, then later coming to a degree of acceptance and peace. The interviewee list is illuminating - not just famous people but his sister, friends and house staff. George Michael's cousin gives an interesting insight into how Michael's singing at Mercury's memorial concert was personally significant for Michael. The belated appearance of Axl Rose to duet with Elton John on Bohemian Rhapsody is electrifying. It sounds obvious, but that concert showed just how great a musician Mercury was. And how much he was adored by fans. As a Def Leppard singer points out, though, the early 1990s was a strange time, because there was still a lot of homophobia around, but at the same time, people were starting to come out of the closet. Maybe the doco glosses over the downsides about Freddie's life a bit too much, but it does a decent job, and points out they millions still die of AIDS due to lack of access to drugs, and suffer persecution..

He'll live forever to me, until I'm alive. Sometime I wish I was older, so that I could've lived at the same time as he did, to have a chance to meet him. He is what I CALL : A MUSICIAN. A singer, a Legend.

An surprisingly execlent documentary , realized by BBC (from wher the surprise come), My skin was goose bumps and i cry until dishrdrating , when i heard the music of my favorit group when i was a teenager and see the crowds at theiir concerts. Altthought i know all i possibly to know about Queen, the movie touches me very deep. It's amazing at Queen the fact is the single band with same melody sounds diferent everytime you heard it. Every time you discover something new. Today music is worst than car.alarm. Inferior formes of life like Armin Van Buren , Justin Beaver , Lady Gaga Beyonce , Niki Minage and almost al l are called musicians. They have nothing to do with music. They are producind only noise polution.
