Rocketman (15)

Dir: Dexter Fletcher

Cast: Taron Egerton, Richard Madden, Jamie Bell

US, 2019, 121 mins

Charting Elton John’s meteoric rise to stardom, followed by his descent into depression and addiction, Rocketman is an impressionistic vision of rock 'n' roll myth-making. Scripted by Lee (Billy Elliot) Hall, the film’s heart and soul is provided by a stunning and exuberant performance from Taron Egerton as Elton John.
