Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)

Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) is a sweeping, music-driven biopic that follows the meteoric rise of British rock band Queen and their charismatic frontman Freddie Mercury, from 1970s London to their triumphant 1985 Live Aid performance. You’ll watch the band—Freddie, guitarist Brian May, drummer Roger Taylor and bassist John Deacon—forge a revolutionary sound, break boundaries with legendary songs, and achieve global stardom. If you see the film you’ll experience powerful concert recreations and electrifying musical sequences that put Queen’s hits front and center, intimate scenes that explore Freddie’s complicated identity and relationships, and dramatic backstage moments about fame, artistic conflict and the pressures of success. The movie moves between exuberant highs—creative breakthroughs and show-stopping performances—and darker personal lows, including Freddie’s estrangement from the band and his battle with illness. Bohemian Rhapsody is equal parts celebration and character study: a foot-stomping, emotional ride that showcases iconic music, memorable performances, and the bittersweet human story behind one of rock’s most enduring legacies.
