Elton John "Rocketman" Musical Biopic is Fantastic!

Wow! Karen and I saw "Rocketman" this evening. I'm still soaring from the music. The movie is touching, beautifully filmed and amazing.

"Taron Edgerton gives a performance with such thrills and vulnerability, such charisma and pathos, that it’s hard not to be wowed. This includes doing all of his own singing." (Christy Lemire, Roger Ebert review.)

I saw Elton John in concert at the Tacoma Dome in the 1980s. He was amazing.

Here's the trailer:

I heard aobut this on NPR. What impressed me was that Elton Joh himself liked the movie, even though it covered a lot of his unflattering past.

@snytiger6

Elton John produced "Rocketman." His husband, David Furnish, helped with the movie.

@LiterateHiker The interview I herd ws with the director. It wasn't mentioned that Elton produced the movie.

I'm watching it right now, I dislike the english way for musical movies, songs are amazing, but all the parts were people are singing with him like in the cafeteria scene, but its fine.
