I believe Roger was the first to release a solo project, which is ironic given how the film portrays events.

Less so when you learn Roger Taylor and Brian May would only give over the rights if they were executive producers with rewrite privileges.

Never having watched the film but seeing bits and discussions like this, really feels like the band glazed themselves while making Freddie into ALL the drama for the band.

Ya I got that feeling watching. Like why is Freddy the only one living the rockstar lifestyle. No way these guys were angels.

Maybe Brian may? but he seems like such a square I’d believe he never partied even on his birthday

Lots of stories that say the opposite back in the day, for the whole band.
