I can't stop crying (Watched Bohemian Rhapsody)
    #25589477 -

I have always struggled with being "me" and being the "me" that I perceived that my friends, family, country, etc. wanted me to be. There is something about this movie that confronts me. like its calling me out. I have often mused if I am gay, but I have lived such a macho lifestyle that i wouldn't know how. I have been with my wife for twelve years as of today. I love her, but we have always recognized that I am emotionally distant. I literally could not and want not to imagine my life without her or my children. Everything that i do has been to make others happy. I joined the navy for her; I attempted to be a SEAL for my father; i got OUT of the navy for my children; I am in college because that is the more reputable route, by society's measure, to do what I wish to do. I am still working through it, and thanks for reading.

I just watched Bohemian Rhapsody and cannot stop crying for the past hour, and the feelings come in waves as I find myself reflecting over various elements of the movie. The themes of self worth, family, friends, forgiveness, and redemption hit particularly hard because i grew up with this music.

I highly recommend that others see it and weigh in here, if it strikes them to do so.

I suspect many young men tried to be seals due to their fathers.  It seems to take something almost magical and true to pull that one off.

Try being asexual and see where the energy goes.  I don't believe in true love as much as I dofate and a but of commitment to those we cross paths with.  So may be your wife, may be some dude at the gym.  Over all I tend to buy into that our true sexual identity is just about release and maybe what scares us the most.  Sexual activity realy isn't about control as much as losing something negative and heavy.  It's a brief loss of control and flirting with disaster.  Some rather be more safe about it, many have not.

Whatever the case of the choice, protect yourself in all ways.  The world is more free and a lot more accepting.  Cannot even imagine all the concerns.

That is some wise stuff. I will admit that I have a problem being vulnerable. Its probably why i decided it would be good to make this post. Thanks for weighing in.

So you are saying the song we will rock you,we are the champions, bohemian rhapsody and somebody to love suck. No just no

Queen has amazing guitar and drums that standalone in rock history but Freddie Mercury is one of the best vocalists ever .

Anyway that’s quite the unexpected experience but yeah if there’s something that is that powerful don’t shove ur true feelings down. Maybe you do love her and also have thoughts or feelings for men and need to explore . I don’t know but people here will support u as a human not gay or straight. Good on you for being in touch with your feelings

Been meaning to watch that movie but I knew it’d be dramatic ,still may see it as a cool biopic

I was at the 2nd mayhem fest ever and have plenty of rap ,rock, indie and heavy metal in my life.

Technically speaking though you're wrong about Freddie at least. He literally has the lowest to highest voice register known and WIDELY regarded amongst most musicians as the greatest vocalist of all time.

Does that mean they are in my favorite band list? No but respect is due musically

I spent time in the Middle East boarding pirate/trafficking/smuggling vessels and spent literally days awake without sleep. I’ve heaved on line till my hands bled. I promise; I’m not soft by any stretch of the imagination.
This was kinda the point of putting this out there. We live in a world where everyone seems to feel the need to behave as if it’s constantly a contest. It can be a virtue to be able to let yourself be vulnerable. I am working on this. You should too, and maybe commend others for doing so instead of demean or or poke fun at them

Lol Rushmore and Comstock. Even spent a little time on the thatch.
Navy calls it a rate, btw. I was in designated but struck OS. There isn’t a rate that does that specifically. It’s a collateral duty called VBSS (visit, board, search and seizure). You got a prob, cool guy?

What I’m trying to get at here is simply that the movie has the capacity to evoke powerful emotions, maybe even despite you musical inclinations.

I watched it night before last and I definitely got a lump in my throat. My wife was crying pretty good, she had an uncle die of AIDS back in the early 90's I think.

I wish I could let my emotions show like that, but it's like I've stopped it enough times that it's just biologically my default to get a little watery-eyed and that's it.

Definitely a very good movie, I thought. Other members of Queen were on set most of the time apparently, in order to portray it accurately. Have ya'll seen the Live Aid concert on Youtube? It's IDENTICAL to the movie, camera angles, dance moves, everything except that obviously Freddie Mercury sang better than the actor.

I didn't expect much from the movie, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Yeah. It wasn't a bad movie, but as I understand the rest of the band were producers so they whitewashed a lot of the shit. Freddie didn't get AIDS by drinking coffee and going to church. They downplayed some of his excessiveness I think. He was living in Munich for a couple of years going to gay clubs and stuff, the movie made it seem like a few weeks or something.

Similarly, it felt like they were trying to cram too much in. There were a lot of important moments that felt a little forced and rushed in the interest of time.



This youtube video is a little more documentary than drama, but I still think they did a better job. The Bohemian Rhapsody Live Aid scene was far superior though.

I guessed that I’m of the opinion that cinema is a special medium that necessitates occasional concessions. The message of that movie may be trying to convey that the debauchery was not his identity nor are all events that transpired indicative of the band’s identity. Movies take liberties with facts that may help to better depict the truth within a limited medium. There is a perfectly adequate documentary already out there if that’s what anyone  wanted.
