Rocketman (I) (2019)
8/10
These are your songs.

Very good biopic , with a stunning performance by Taron Egerton :the most successful artist of the first half of the seventies really comes alive ;many songs are included and it is a well-chose menu : they fit into the action quite well ,particularly "tiny dancer" and the title song ,perhaps the highlight of the whole movie . Jamie Bell gives strong support as Bernie Taupin and he has the most moving line of the script "yes I love you ,Elton,but not that way!"He's the sensible guy who hardly knows his good friend in his extravaganzas, his flashy costumes ,and he's the one who saved his life ,not only tonight as Elton sang in 1975 ,but later,when he made his descent into Hell. This is also a beautiful story of friendship.
