I only agree with this partly!! I feel like they should’ve shown a little bit more of Freddie and Jim’s relationship, but at the same time I didn’t want it to be done in such a way that overshadows the relationship he had with Mary Austin. Freddie Mercury has always been lauded as this big gay icon, which is WRONG because he’s bisexual. The love of his life is Mary (enough that when he died, he willed a majority of his estate to Mary, and Jim only got 500,000, for the reason that he always viewed Mary as his common law wife, that he loved her even until his death) and I think the movie did a good job portraying the fact that Freddie Mercury is bisexual, that he loved a man towards the end but the one, big, great love of his life was always a woman.
So maybe a few more scenes with Jim and Freddie would’ve been nice—a shot of them walking away together from Live Aid, or maybe a bit more conversation between them, but I feel like putting more of their domesticity would’ve shifted the focus from “Mary was the love of Freddie’s life” to “OOOOOH GAY RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FREDDIE AND JIM MY HEART 💔”
