Which British music biopic scene actually gave you goosebumps? Rank 'em!
From Freddie belting at Wembley to Elton finding his Rocket Man, British music biopics love a big emotional moment. Which one hit you hardest?
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
Bohemian Rhapsody β The Live Aid Recreation
That shot-for-shot Live Aid recreation had grown adults ugly-crying in the cinema. Say what you like about the film's accuracy, that finale was pure spine-tingle telly.
B
Rocketman β 'Rocket Man' Pool Scene
Taron Egerton floating out of a swimming pool into the Dodger Stadium stage is the kind of bonkers musical fantasy Elton actually deserves. Pure theatre.
C
Control β Ian Curtis Dances to 'She's Lost Control'
Anton Corbijn's black-and-white masterpiece captures Ian Curtis's haunting stage presence like nothing else. Uncomfortable, hypnotic, unforgettable.
D
Nowhere Boy β John Meets Paul
Aaron Taylor-Johnson's brooding Lennon locking eyes with a young McCartney at Woolton Village Fete. History being made over a cup of squash.
E
Stardust β Bowie's American Road Trip
A divisive, unofficial Bowie biopic with no actual Bowie songs β bold move. Still, the raw dressing-room moments have their scruffy charm.
