    The correct title shoulf be Freddie Mercury an invented story
    This docu-biography-drama is full of mistakes.The only true biography of Freddie Mercury is in the book "The show must go on".This movie is even worst than Bohemian Rhapsody, the acting is worst if can be worst than in Bohemians Rhapsody, The way is Freddie presented is outrageous
