00:04I first read the script I said oh I can't do this there's too many similarities I could you know
00:11it
00:12could be problematic there was a certain sense of fear and and I started to really think about
00:20what I was afraid of was it the similarities was it the singing was it the obviously what was going
00:30on in the period and you know the fear was I knew I had to address the fear if there's
00:37anything Freddie
00:37taught me was address the fear and when I raced into it I started to discover that these were men
00:44that were similar but they were also worlds apart I mean you have an icon a legend in in Freddie
00:51who
00:52was really had a you know destination whereas Jimmy is just searching for you know creativity and and
01:04love and intimacy and joy and pleasure in every moment and you know he can sing does he sing as
01:10well as Freddie no utterly fascinated by his refusal to give up and so I I kept thinking about this
01:19refusal this stubborn refusal to disappear for Jimmy all throughout and of course this undertone
01:27of death throughout the film but predominantly it's about living
01:31of death and so I think that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:35same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:35same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:36same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:36same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:36same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:37same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:37same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the
01:37same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing that's the same thing
