2
00:02:32,170 --> 00:02:33,840
How long is this gonna take?
3
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:35,980
That's really up to you.
4
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,800
Right then.
5
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:41,950
I know how this bit goes.
6
00:02:47,470 --> 00:02:50,750
My name is Elton Hercules John,
7
00:02:57,100 --> 00:02:59,390
and I'm an alcoholic
8
00:03:03,210 --> 00:03:04,910
and a cocaine addict
9
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,880
and a sex addict
10
00:03:12,510 --> 00:03:14,010
and a bulimic.
11
00:03:16,090 --> 00:03:19,530
Mostly a shopaholic
who has problems with weed,
12
00:03:20,090 --> 00:03:22,120
prescription drugs
13
00:03:24,920 --> 00:03:27,100
and anger management.
14
00:03:28,170 --> 00:03:29,200
Why are you here now?
15
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,700
Well, my dealer was out of town. I thought
this seemed like a good alternative.
16
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,890
I'm here because I want to get better.
17
00:03:43,690 --> 00:03:45,740
What were you like as a child, Elton?
18
00:03:45,790 --> 00:03:47,230

Reggie!
44
00:05:34,910 --> 00:05:36,360
You're late!
45
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,920
I've had to throw your dinner in the bin!
Get inside!
46
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,700
Is he back?
47
00:05:52,090 --> 00:05:53,150
What am I? Thin air?
48
00:05:54,220 --> 00:05:55,740
Don't get your hopes up.
49
00:05:55,740 --> 00:05:58,140
He's very unreliable and very selfish.
50
00:05:58,140 --> 00:06:00,140
But will you send him up
if I'm already in bed?
51
00:06:00,140 --> 00:06:01,930
Reggie, move!
52
00:06:02,030 --> 00:06:04,010
I wanna get this done before I go out.
53
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:08,910
All right, I'm done.
54
00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:10,780
Put it away before you go out.
55
00:06:10,780 --> 00:06:12,730
Mum, I've got to go.
56
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,440
Where's my cardigan?
57
00:06:37,370 --> 00:06:38,590
What?
58
00:06:38,830 --> 00:06:40,240
Did I do something wrong?
59
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,140
Bloody hell, Sheila.
Maybe we should get him some lessons.
60
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:45,290
Love to.
61
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,680
Get him out from under my feet.
62
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,670
Go on, play it again.
63
00:06:54,090 --> 00:06:56,000
I wanna play it for Dad.
64
00:07:02,780 --> 00:07:04,560
Managed to drag yourself home then?
65
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,250
Hello, Stanley.
66
00:07:06,250 --> 00:07:08,440
- How are you, Ivy?
- Like you care.
67
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,440
Come on. Letting in a draft.
68
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,040
How long you back?
69
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,950
I got a couple of weeks leave.
70
00:07:17,950 --> 00:07:20,160
Reggie's not long gone to bed.
71
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:21,200
Go on.
72
00:07:21,530 --> 00:07:22,780
Pop up. Say hello.
73
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:24,570
I'll see him tomorrow.
74
00:07:26,810 --> 00:07:28,320
Any dinner left?
75
00:07:28,490 --> 00:07:31,020
Or have you fed it all to that boy?
76
00:07:32,830 --> 00:07:34,880
My dad was passionate about
77
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,010
family and music.
78
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,100
He'd talk for hours about jazz.
79
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:42,970
Was always hugging me.
80
00:07:43,050 --> 00:07:44,520
I was very lucky.
81
00:07:49,370 --> 00:07:51,870
I was actually a very happy child.
82
00:07:59,950 --> 00:08:02,490
Dad? Is it true you play piano?
83
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,430
I'm saving to get lessons.
84
00:08:04,430 --> 00:08:06,560
If you want to sit in here
you'll have to be quiet.
85
00:08:07,900 --> 00:08:09,370
I'm listening to my music.
86
00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:20,560
I like this one, Dad.
87
00:08:25,930 --> 00:08:29,150
Never, ever touch my collection
without asking.
88
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,690
When are you going to hug me?
89
00:08:42,620 --> 00:08:44,240
Don't be soft.
90
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,250
What are you still doing up?
91
00:08:54,250 --> 00:08:54,920
Learning.
92
00:08:56,380 --> 00:08:58,460
Turn off the light. Go to sleep.
93
00:09:58,680 --> 00:10:00,920
Crumbs! That was energetic.
94
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,070
Play another one.
95
00:10:03,610 --> 00:10:06,040
The Moonlight Sonata, Reggie.
96
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:09,240
Mum?
97
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,130
My piano teacher thinks I'm good enough
98
00:10:11,130 --> 00:10:13,160
for a scholarship
at the Royal Academy of Music.
99
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,280
The Royal Academy of Music?
100
00:10:18,250 --> 00:10:20,240
It has a nice ring to it.
101
00:10:20,350 --> 00:10:21,260
"Royal."
102
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:22,460
Scissors.
103
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,860
- What do you think?
- Um, the red one's good.
104
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,120
It's only on Saturdays.
105
00:10:31,790 --> 00:10:34,570
Things to do on weekends.
Can't just drop everything.
106
00:10:34,570 --> 00:10:35,310
I'll take you.
107
00:10:38,060 --> 00:10:39,020
Where are you off to?
108
00:10:40,090 --> 00:10:42,270
Dunno. Haven't decided yet.
109
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,300
But, whatever it is, you're not invited.
110
00:10:46,300 --> 00:10:49,600
Reggie's piano teacher thinks
he's good enough for a scholarship.
111
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:50,910
Really?
112
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,700
You think he's got that kind of talent?
113
00:10:53,230 --> 00:10:54,620
Of course he has,
114
00:10:54,620 --> 00:10:55,660
but you'd know that
115
00:10:55,660 --> 00:10:59,370
if you took the slightest bit of
interest in me or this family.
116
00:11:09,070 --> 00:11:11,420
Stop looking at that.
You're not a girl.
117
00:11:24,890 --> 00:11:26,190
Can we go home?
118
00:11:26,190 --> 00:11:28,320
Home? No going home.
119
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:29,960
This is your life.
120
00:11:30,460 --> 00:11:32,960
You have to get over that silly shyness.
121
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,630
- But Mum says I'll never...
- Everybody's frightened at the beginning.
122
00:11:36,670 --> 00:11:38,920
Play at being confident.
123
00:11:39,550 --> 00:11:43,240
Life gives you very few chances,
Reggie, and this is one of yours.
124
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,140
You show 'em you can be as good
as they are. Better. Number one.
125
00:11:46,140 --> 00:11:47,850
You can do that, can't you?
126
00:11:48,190 --> 00:11:51,290
- Yeah, I suppose.
- Good, go on then. Here.
127
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,330
This is for a bag of chips
and your bus fare home.
128
00:12:11,310 --> 00:12:13,000
Reginald Dwight?
129
00:12:13,180 --> 00:12:15,580
- Yes.
- How do you do?
130
00:12:18,060 --> 00:12:19,690
Good, thank you.
131
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,450
Take your coat off.
132
00:12:24,380 --> 00:12:26,120
Did you not bring something to play?
133
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,000
Didn't know I had to.
134
00:12:30,650 --> 00:12:31,710
I see, well...
135
00:12:34,110 --> 00:12:35,980
So, can you show me anything
136
00:12:35,980 --> 00:12:38,990
so we can get a sense
of where you're up to.
137
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:01,160
Why have you stopped?
138
00:13:03,660 --> 00:13:04,880
That's as far as you got.
139
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,430
You might have a good memory
and a good ear,
140
00:13:10,620 --> 00:13:12,940
but you have an awful amount
of work to do.
141
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:16,560
So, wrists and back straight.
142
00:13:16,810 --> 00:13:19,080
Let's start with a C major scale.
143
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,360
Both hands, two octaves.
144
00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:31,610
Hands off the table, Reginald.
Stop making that noise.
145
00:13:34,750 --> 00:13:36,680

Reggie, what you doing?
182
00:16:13,020 --> 00:16:16,940
Hello, son, I'm Fred.
I'm a friend of your mum's.
183
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,240
You tied me down with that kid
years ago,
184
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,890
and now
I've finally got a reason to leave
185
00:16:30,890 --> 00:16:34,320
and be rid of you and this bloody house!
186
00:16:57,340 --> 00:16:59,600
He didn't even give me a hug goodbye.
187
00:17:01,210 --> 00:17:03,640
He's not good at showing affection.
188
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,160
Never has been.
189
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,530
- I wish I was someone else.
- Oh, don't be silly.
190
00:17:16,700 --> 00:17:18,700
Well, how do you think I felt?
191
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:22,910
I was a kid.
192
00:17:27,930 --> 00:17:29,310
Heartbroken.
193
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,380
People don't care, though, do they?
194
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:39,710
Anyway,
195
00:17:42,410 --> 00:17:44,350
I'd discovered records
196
00:17:46,090 --> 00:17:48,000
and rock and roll.
197
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:55,640
I know you like him.
198
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,290
He's quite a dish.
199
00:17:57,290 --> 00:17:59,840
- Oh, I would.
- Oh, Mum!
200
00:18:00,190 --> 00:18:01,530
Thanks, Mum.
201
00:18:01,770 --> 00:18:03,050
It's fantastic.
202
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,720
You serious
about wanting to be a rock and roller?
203
00:18:05,850 --> 00:18:07,720
Yeah, of course.
204
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,600
Got to get you the proper haircut, eh?
205
00:18:10,570 --> 00:18:14,060
- Can I get it cut like Elvis?
- Enjoy it while it lasts.
206
00:18:14,060 --> 00:18:15,600
He's like my side of the family.
207
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,700
He'll be bald as an egg
by the time he's 20.
208
00:18:37,930 --> 00:18:38,970
Congratulations to Dave.
209
00:18:38,970 --> 00:18:41,790
He's won four pork chops,
half a pound of prime mince
210
00:18:41,790 --> 00:18:43,550
and a string of sausages.
211
00:18:43,550 --> 00:18:45,930
Thank you. Thank you.
212
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,140
Now, Sheila and Fred's boy's gonna
sing us a couple of songs on the piano.
213
00:18:50,140 --> 00:18:52,440
Reggie Dwight!
214
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:56,170
- Go on, boy.
- He'll be fine, he'll be fine.
215
00:18:56,170 --> 00:18:57,390
Hello?
216
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,480
Bloody hell. You got a fag?
217
00:19:05,310 --> 00:19:06,860
Rubbish!
218
00:19:06,860 --> 00:19:09,790
Reg! Reg! Play the one I like.
219
00:19:10,830 --> 00:19:12,170
Excuse me.
220
00:19:12,490 --> 00:19:14,360
- You can't put that there.
- Why not?
221
00:19:14,360 --> 00:19:15,360

00:28:08,650 --> 00:28:10,170
One frothy coffee.
362
00:28:10,170 --> 00:28:11,660
- No froth.
- Thanks.
363
00:28:11,660 --> 00:28:13,210
We close in an hour.
364
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,500
- Bernie Taupin?
- Yeah.
365
00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:18,360
You must be Elton.
366
00:28:18,460 --> 00:28:19,520
- Yeah.
- Hi.
367
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,210
Well, it's my stage name.
368
00:28:21,210 --> 00:28:25,040
Oh. Well, you can tell me your real name
when we get to know each other better.
369
00:28:25,260 --> 00:28:26,240
Right.
370
00:28:27,930 --> 00:28:29,080
Uh...
371
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,430
Um...
372
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,260
- Have you ever... Sorry.
- I was thinking... Sorry.
373
00:28:33,260 --> 00:28:35,130
No, no, please, after you.
374
00:28:36,730 --> 00:28:38,220
I like your lyrics.
375
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:39,450
Thank you.
376
00:28:39,450 --> 00:28:42,330
Yeah, yeah, I got the tape that you sent.
It's great.
377
00:28:42,670 --> 00:28:44,000
Really good.
378
00:28:44,570 --> 00:28:45,200
Thanks.
379
00:28:45,850 --> 00:28:47,820
Oh, hang on, uh...
380
00:28:47,820 --> 00:28:50,190
Yeah, don't... don't bother with that one.
That wasn't supposed to be in there.
381
00:28:50,190 --> 00:28:51,950
No, no, that one's really good.
382
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,030
I wrote a tune to it.
383
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,000
Mmm?
384
00:28:55,260 --> 00:28:56,960
- Yeah.
- Border Song?
385
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,060
Yeah.
386
00:28:58,060 --> 00:29:00,910
I read it, and I could hear
the whole tune in my head
387
00:29:00,910 --> 00:29:03,420
It was all there. I could see all the notes,
and I just had to get it out.
388
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,890
It was like my fingers couldn't work
fast enough to keep up with my brain.
389
00:29:09,500 --> 00:29:10,640
Do you ever get anything like that?
390
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,390
Uh... Not really, no.
391
00:29:13,690 --> 00:29:16,170
Uh, but I could write
more for you, though, Elton.
392
00:29:16,780 --> 00:29:17,930
I'll just send them down to you.
393
00:29:18,010 --> 00:29:20,280
Great. That'd be good.
394
00:29:20,730 --> 00:29:21,880
Great.
395
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,320
My real name's Reg Dwight.
396
00:29:27,740 --> 00:29:28,910
Oh, cool.
397
00:29:29,150 --> 00:29:30,490
Yeah, that sounds like a cowboy name.
398
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,760
Yeah, all I ever, uh...
399
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,660
All I ever wanted to be was a cowboy,
you see.
400
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,760
Do you like country and western music?
401
00:29:38,110 --> 00:29:39,930
- Yeah.
- Yeah, it's good, innit?
402
00:29:39,930 --> 00:29:42,080
Have you heard Streets of Laredo
by Marty Robbins?
403
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:44,080

All right, don't break your neck
sucking your own cock.
443
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,680
Maybe we can put these two
into a little B combo.
444
00:32:01,100 --> 00:32:02,060
He's the good-looking one.
445
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,740
- We'll make him the singer.
- Oh, no, hold on, I'm tone deaf.
446
00:32:05,740 --> 00:32:07,770
Elton is... He sings the songs.
447
00:32:07,770 --> 00:32:09,930
Yeah, we could just take the songs
and leave if you like.

Dick.

so I do the writing,
454
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,080
send it down to him,
and then he adds the music.

of songwriters not living together?

- Uh, hundreds.

find a place to work together,
475
00:33:33,070 --> 00:33:34,480

No, not to me.
507
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,050
Might matter to Arabella though.
508
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,760

00:37:01,870 --> 00:37:04,080
I just don't know if I'm
538
00:37:04,590 --> 00:37:06,060
what they're looking for.
539
00:37:11,630 --> 00:37:13,950
It's time for you to be out front.
540
00:37:21,290 --> 00:37:23,050
I love you, man,
541
00:37:24,780 --> 00:37:26,300
I do, but
542
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,160
not in that way.
543
00:37:36,190 --> 00:37:37,180
Yeah.
544
00:37:38,570 --> 00:37:39,800
Elton?
545
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,170
Time for bed!
546
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,270
We became inseparable after that.
547
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,970
The brother I never had.
548
00:37:53,740 --> 00:37:55,640
Do you know in 20 years
549
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,530
we have never had
550
00:37:57,530 --> 00:37:59,400
a single argument, not once.
551
00:37:59,630 --> 00:38:01,390
Anyway, I took his advice.
552
00:38:01,450 --> 00:38:03,040
Told Arabella.
553
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,140
She took it very well actually.
554
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,460
You bastard!
555
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,000
She's got my piano!
556
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,380
You shameless beast!
557
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,220
Your music's as shitty as you are!
558
00:38:19,870 --> 00:38:20,810
All right, Mum?
559
00:38:22,380 --> 00:38:23,520
I knew you'd be back.
560
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,600
You'll have to pay a rent.
I'm not made of money.
561
00:38:35,610 --> 00:38:37,290
- Morning.
- Good morning.
562
00:38:37,290 --> 00:38:39,920
- Ugh, get dressed, Reggie.
- Elton.
563
00:38:40,830 --> 00:38:42,960
I'm not having you moping around
all day.
564
00:38:43,470 --> 00:38:46,000
- We're song writing.
- Oh yeah?
565
00:38:46,060 --> 00:38:47,950
Looks like it's going well.
566
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,230
Right.
I won't have mess in this house.
567
00:38:53,230 --> 00:38:56,120
It's nice and tidy,
and that's how I want it to stay.
568
00:38:56,380 --> 00:38:59,310
I'll not have a dosshouse around here.
I can't do everything.
569
00:38:59,310 --> 00:39:02,480
- I can't cook and clean and wash.
- Mmm.
570
00:39:02,860 --> 00:39:05,180
Rely upon me to do everything.
It's not fair.
571
00:39:05,180 --> 00:39:06,400
There's egg on this.
572
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,560
I'd better go, uh,
573
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:13,760
take a shave, I think.
574
00:39:21,500 --> 00:39:22,810

I love it.
Best thing I've heard since Let It Be.
619
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:52,910
Trans-fucking-Atlantic.
620
00:42:53,130 --> 00:42:55,080
I always knew you boys could do it.
621
00:42:55,450 --> 00:42:58,000
First thing I'm gonna do
is put you on a three-album deal.
622
00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:59,720
Three?
623
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:01,260
A year?
624
00:43:01,420 --> 00:43:03,840
And I got you a couple of nights
at The Troubadour.
625
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,120
- Doug Weston's an old friend.
- Hang on.
626
00:43:06,270 --> 00:43:07,530
- The Troubadour?
- Mm.
627
00:43:07,530 --> 00:43:10,510
- It's this really cool folk club in L.A.
- Yeah, we know what it is, Ray.
628
00:43:10,510 --> 00:43:12,810
Hang on, no, let's not be hasty
because the thing is,
629
00:43:12,810 --> 00:43:15,800
- I haven't even got a backing band yet.
- No, I've sorted the backup band, don't worry.
630
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,550
Dick, I don't wanna appear ungrateful,
but you can't just spring the Troubadour on me.
631
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,310
It's time to do something bold, Elton.
632
00:43:22,190 --> 00:43:25,130
Granted,
America's a bit of a gamble.
633
00:43:25,180 --> 00:43:27,370
You fuck up and I'll kill you.
634
00:43:27,820 --> 00:43:30,160
But Ray will go too.
He'll keep an eye on you.
635
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,100
Buy yourself some new clothes.
636
00:43:33,100 --> 00:43:34,920
Something flashy.
637
00:43:35,470 --> 00:43:37,340
Let 'em know who you are.
638
00:43:38,030 --> 00:43:39,920
Put on a great fucking show,
639
00:43:41,630 --> 00:43:43,530
and just don't kill yourself with drugs.
640
00:43:44,490 --> 00:43:45,610
Yeah?
641
00:43:46,170 --> 00:43:47,520
Yeah, right.
642
00:43:48,540 --> 00:43:50,380
I'm gonna have a massage.
643
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:52,250

Friends of Dick!
656
00:44:47,790 --> 00:44:50,620
- Good to see you, Doug.
- Ray!
657
00:44:51,720 --> 00:44:53,880
How are you?
So good to see you, man.
658
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,110
- What did you bring me?
- Doug, Bernie.
659
00:44:56,110 --> 00:44:58,090
- Nice to meet you.
- Hi, Bernie.
660
00:44:58,490 --> 00:44:59,840
Uh, hi, I'm Elton.
661
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,170
Oh, sweet. How are you?
662
00:45:02,170 --> 00:45:04,800
Monday night at The Troubadour, man.
663
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,300
It's gonna blow your mind.
664
00:45:06,430 --> 00:45:08,840
Be totally packed.
You're gonna love it.
665
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:12,090
- It's a bit different from what I expected.
- Yeah?
666
00:45:12,410 --> 00:45:16,160
- Yeah, it's just a bit smaller.
- Well, size is everything, my friend.
667
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:17,880
Neil Young played here last week,
668
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,510
and there were people
lined around the block.
669
00:45:20,510 --> 00:45:22,720
Yeah, it was just...
It was just the best night ever.
670
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,520
- That's a cool hat.
- Yeah?
671
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,930
- You like it?
- I do like it, yeah.
672
00:45:28,490 --> 00:45:31,050
- I won that hat on a bet.
- Ah!
673
00:45:31,050 --> 00:45:32,360
- With Bob Dylan.
- Really?
674
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:33,420
- Yeah.
- That's cool.
675
00:45:33,420 --> 00:45:34,490
Elton!
676
00:45:34,490 --> 00:45:36,490
This is the band. I'm just gonna check
they know what they're doing.
677
00:45:36,490 --> 00:45:39,660
So, you want something to drink?
Get these guys whatever they want.
678
00:45:39,660 --> 00:45:41,640
They just flew in from England.
679
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,470
And boy, their arms are tired.
680
00:45:49,930 --> 00:45:51,980
Oh, dude!
What the hell are you wearing?
681
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:56,860
My stage gear.
682
00:45:56,860 --> 00:45:59,360
Where's Reggie? Where's Reggie?
Reggie, Reggie, Reggie!
683
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:00,560
Neil Diamond is at the bar.
684
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:04,890
He's talking to Leon Russell
and half the fucking Beach Boys, eh!
685
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:10,350
Jesus shit, Bernie!
686
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:11,980
Reggie?
687
00:46:12,730 --> 00:46:14,810
Elton!
I think you're overreacting.
688
00:46:14,810 --> 00:46:18,700
No, Bernie, you are underreacting.
689
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,340
They are the geniuses of American music.
690
00:46:21,340 --> 00:46:23,100
I can't go out there in front of that lot.
691
00:46:23,100 --> 00:46:23,840
Okay, okay.
692
00:46:24,170 --> 00:46:27,290
Then we'll tell Doug
to refund everyone's ticket,
693
00:46:27,290 --> 00:46:28,970
and we'll send everybody home.
694
00:46:28,970 --> 00:46:29,800
- Where is he?
- Oh, hey, Ray.
695
00:46:30,650 --> 00:46:33,660
You've signed a contract.
Dick's paid your fucking airfare.
696
00:46:33,660 --> 00:46:36,510
Now get out there and play,
you little twat.
697
00:46:44,240 --> 00:46:45,610
Well, come on, then.
698
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,640

and let me tell you,
811
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:37,080
there are moments in a rock star's life
that define who he is
812
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:40,000
and how people perceive him as he
813

- Okay.
- Things are going crazy.
843
00:57:38,670 --> 00:57:39,660
I've extended our stay.
844
00:57:39,660 --> 00:57:41,440
We're in San Francisco tomorrow
for three nights.
845
00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:43,440
- Ray, slow down.
- After that, we fly to NYC.
846
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,010
Then we're back here for two more shows,
and then,
847
00:57:46,010 --> 00:57:48,640
Dick wants us back in London
to start the new album.
848
00:57:48,670 --> 00:57:51,050
- Doug.

Hm-mmm.
893
01:00:26,190 --> 01:00:28,830
- I'm gonna go in.
- He's actually quite busy.
894
01:00:29,770 --> 01:00:30,910
Thanks.
895
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:34,460
- Nice job.
- Nice suit.
896
01:00:38,110 --> 01:00:39,310
Hello.
897
01:00:41,100 --> 01:00:42,240
What are you doing?
898
01:00:42,750 --> 01:00:44,140
Business.
899
01:00:44,670 --> 01:00:46,990
And I promised if I was ever in town
I'd look you up.
900
01:00:47,790 --> 01:00:49,150
How long you staying?
901
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:51,950
Well, I'm not sure. That depends.
902
01:00:52,910 --> 01:00:54,410
Don't make me beg.
903
01:00:55,390 --> 01:00:57,130
I've been hearing your songs everywhere.
904
01:00:57,130 --> 01:00:59,210
Makes it very hard
to stop thinking about you.
905
01:01:01,980 --> 01:01:02,670
Really?
906
01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:06,220
Elton, what's going on?
907
01:01:06,220 --> 01:01:08,730
Are we going again
or shall we go for a pint?
908
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,220
Yeah, no, yeah, you should go for a pint.
909
01:01:31,050 --> 01:01:32,240
What do you want, Elton?
910
01:01:32,700 --> 01:01:34,120
Uh... Dinner with you.
911
01:01:34,590 --> 01:01:37,050
So humble, it's embarrassing.
912
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:40,670
You're a millionaire rock star
who lives at home with his mum.
913
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:43,370
Things are serious now.
914
01:01:43,870 --> 01:01:45,420
Be brave,
915
01:01:45,420 --> 01:01:46,760
and think big.
916
01:01:47,500 --> 01:01:49,660

No one's getting phased out, Dick.
953
01:04:03,420 --> 01:04:07,070
Elton feels things will run more smoothly
if he has personal management.
954
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:11,230
- There's never been a problem before.
- And there isn't one now.
955
01:04:11,870 --> 01:04:15,120
Look, there's loads of work,
commitments, tours, et cetera.
956
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:16,810
That's what I'll be doing.
Personal management.
957
01:04:16,810 --> 01:04:18,300
Taking care of things.
958
01:04:18,300 --> 01:04:19,400
Well, is that right?
959
01:04:19,580 --> 01:04:21,740
You realise
I've got a contract with Elton?
960
01:04:21,740 --> 01:04:22,920
I've had that looked into,
961
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:25,680
and my client is quite entitled
to take on outside representation.
962
01:04:25,710 --> 01:04:27,360
That's what you think?
963
01:04:28,830 --> 01:04:31,760
You fucking poofter.
964
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:37,050
And you. You're happy with
this arrangement, aren't you?
965
01:04:37,070 --> 01:04:38,160
Right?
966
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:41,640
- After all these years?
- It's nothing personal, Dick.
967
01:04:45,790 --> 01:04:46,810
Come on, Ray.
968
01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:53,600
Best of luck to you, Elton.
969
01:04:58,170 --> 01:05:01,660
Your very expensive painting
is upside down.
970
01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:07,500
- After you, Mr. James.
- Thank you, Raymond.
971
01:05:09,610 --> 01:05:10,940
Well,
972
01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:13,800
that was absolutely horrible.
973
01:05:13,980 --> 01:05:17,020
Don't worry. It's business.
Dick's a big boy. He'll be fine.
974
01:05:17,020 --> 01:05:20,920
Mr. Reid, Lord Grade's office called
about the Royal Variety Performance.
975
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,050
Apparently,
the Queen Mother is a big fan.
976
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:26,220
Couldn't we have kept on Ray?
He's such a lovely guy.
977
01:05:26,330 --> 01:05:28,160
Lovely guy is not a job.
978
01:05:29,180 --> 01:05:31,760
This is a crucial time, Elton.
979
01:05:32,700 --> 01:05:34,280
You and I
are gonna have to be more careful
980
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,120
because
the papers have been sniffing around.
981
01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:38,810
We can't give them anything
to speculate on.
982
01:05:38,970 --> 01:05:40,990
I'm thinking of getting someone in
as your girlfriend.
983
01:05:41,870 --> 01:05:44,540
- Doesn't that seem a bit excessive?
- No, no, no, no, no.
984
01:05:44,540 --> 01:05:46,830
This is your career and our business
at stake.
985
01:05:46,830 --> 01:05:50,460
If our sleeping arrangements get out,
all of this is gone.
986
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:51,930
Right.
987
01:05:51,930 --> 01:05:54,140
And you're gonna have
to talk to your parents.
988
01:05:54,510 --> 01:05:56,000
Make sure they know what to say.
989
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,710
Those are the first doors
reporters knock on.
990
01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:09,720
Hello, Reg.
991
01:06:09,820 --> 01:06:11,100
Hi, Dad.
992
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:19,740
Well, uh... Come... Come on in.
993
01:06:20,910 --> 01:06:23,360
Well, those are very fancy shoes.
994
01:06:23,450 --> 01:06:25,160
Oh... Oh, yeah.
995
01:06:27,340 --> 01:06:28,200
I brought you something.
996
01:06:38,030 --> 01:06:39,710
Why are you here, Reg?
997
01:06:41,310 --> 01:06:43,120
Ah, the boys.
998
01:06:47,130 --> 01:06:49,340
Dad, there's a Rolls Royce outside.
999
01:06:49,500 --> 01:06:51,420
Steven, Geoff.
1000
01:06:52,170 --> 01:06:54,840
This is your brother, Reggie.
1001
01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:55,820
Half-brother.
1002
01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:58,570
I'm not actually called Reggie anymore.
1003
01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:05,150
I thought maybe once I'm back from tour,
you and I could get together if you like.
1004
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:08,780
I could get you
some tickets to my next concert.
1005
01:07:09,070 --> 01:07:11,500
No, not really my thing.
1006
01:07:12,750 --> 01:07:16,300
Is it true you're worth 25 million pound?
1007
01:07:16,300 --> 01:07:18,490
D'you know what?
I don't actually know.
1008
01:07:18,490 --> 01:07:20,110
They're really proud of you.
1009
01:07:20,330 --> 01:07:21,600
Mmm.
1010
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,380
Yeah,
we've even got some of your records.
1011
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,960
- Hm-mmm.
- Why don't you go and get the album?
1012
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:28,430
- Grab us a pen.
- Mmm.
1013
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,030
You probably get asked this
all the time,
1014
01:07:36,220 --> 01:07:38,120
but would you, uh...
1015
01:07:38,350 --> 01:07:39,820
Would you mind signing this?
1016
01:07:43,210 --> 01:07:45,370
Uh, no, of course.
1017
01:07:48,890 --> 01:07:50,940
_
1018
01:07:50,940 --> 01:07:54,000
Oh, no, would you make it out to Arthur?
1019
01:07:55,150 --> 01:07:57,500
He's, uh, one of the blokes from work.
1020
01:07:57,500 --> 01:07:59,290
He... He's a big fan.
1021
01:08:00,590 --> 01:08:02,240
- Is he?
- Hm-mmm.
1022
01:08:10,670 --> 01:08:11,960
Perfect.
1023
01:08:14,540 --> 01:08:15,790
Right.
1024
01:08:17,370 --> 01:08:20,780
Well, it looks like things worked out
really well second time around, Dad.
1025
01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:22,940
- I suppose they have.
- Mmm.
1026
01:08:23,440 --> 01:08:26,080
'Cause, you know,
not everybody gets a second chance.
1027
01:08:31,100 --> 01:08:33,790
The boys loved
meeting a real-life pop star.
1028
01:08:34,460 --> 01:08:35,640
Sure.
1029
01:08:35,850 --> 01:08:37,900
- Thanks, Dad.
- Bye.
1030
01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:42,960
- When I grow up, Dad...
- Get inside.
1031
01:08:42,960 --> 01:08:45,600
What are you doing
without your shoes on?
1032
01:08:50,060 --> 01:08:51,580
Back inside.
1033
01:09:18,830 --> 01:09:21,580
What have you got to do to get
a fucking drink around here, eh?
1034
01:09:29,450 --> 01:09:31,180
Will you stop sulking?
1035
01:09:32,860 --> 01:09:35,240
It has to be done,
whether you like it or not.
1036
01:09:35,740 --> 01:09:37,930
Are you gonna be scared of her
your whole life?
1037
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:41,580
- Right, stop the car!
- Elton.
1038
01:09:41,580 --> 01:09:43,020
I said, stop the car!
1039
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:50,830
You're on stage in fifteen minutes.
1040
01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:54,700
You're the big-shot manager.
You make my excuses.
1041
01:09:54,700 --> 01:09:56,440
Tell 'em I'm indisposed
1042
01:09:56,440 --> 01:09:58,750
breaking my mother's heart!
1043
01:09:59,100 --> 01:09:59,840
Elton!
1044
01:10:00,060 --> 01:10:02,410
Elton! Drive around, Denis.
1045
01:10:02,830 --> 01:10:04,170
Liberace!
1046
01:10:12,670 --> 01:10:16,280
- Pinner, 9755.
- Mum, it's me.
1047
01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:18,060
I know who you are.
1048
01:10:19,440 --> 01:10:21,100
Well, I've got something to tell you.
1049
01:10:21,370 --> 01:10:23,800
Reggie, we're gonna miss
the bit of the show with you on.
1050
01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:25,950
Look, shut... Shut up, Mum!
1051
01:10:26,250 --> 01:10:27,980
I'm not on telly yet, am I?
I'm talking to you.
1052
01:10:30,440 --> 01:10:31,600
I...
1053
01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,190
Me and John, we...
1054
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:37,680
Look, the thing is...
1055
01:10:41,050 --> 01:10:44,430
I'm a homosexual.
1056
01:10:48,300 --> 01:10:50,010
A poofter.
1057
01:10:51,150 --> 01:10:52,910
A fairy.
1058
01:10:53,340 --> 01:10:54,600
A queen.
1059
01:10:59,960 --> 01:11:01,180
Say something!
1060
01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,880
Oh, for God's sake, I know that.
1061
01:11:09,790 --> 01:11:10,910
I've known for years.
1062
01:11:13,530 --> 01:11:16,570
- You don't mind?
- Frankly, I don't care.
1063
01:11:16,890 --> 01:11:20,270
But I'd rather you keep
that sort of thing to yourself.
1064
01:11:22,270 --> 01:11:26,510
I just hope you realise you're choosing
a life of being alone forever.
1065
01:11:27,210 --> 01:11:29,880
You'll never be loved properly.
1066
01:11:35,550 --> 01:11:37,850
Right. Got to go.
1067
01:11:46,780 --> 01:11:48,810
She said I would never be loved.
1068
01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:51,980
Don't ever put me in this position again.
1069
01:11:51,980 --> 01:11:54,490
You're on stage in ten minutes,
so get over yourself and do the show.
1070
01:11:54,490 --> 01:11:56,960
We're running a business here,
you fucking idiot.
1071
01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:00,700
Don't ever put your hands on me.
1072
01:12:05,660 --> 01:12:07,930
Real love's hard to come by.
1073
01:12:14,990 --> 01:12:17,440
So you find a way to cope without it.
1074
01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:21,050
- You okay?
- Yeah.
1075
01:13:21,050 --> 01:13:23,340
Got a number one album in America
again.
1076
01:13:23,340 --> 01:13:27,610
I'm about to embark on the
highest-grossing tour in rock history.
1077
01:13:27,610 --> 01:13:30,760
I'm personally responsible
for 5% of all record sales
1078
01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:31,960
on the entire planet,
1079
01:13:32,090 --> 01:13:34,920
and I have the biggest headdress
known to man,
1080
01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:36,910
so yeah, I think I'm okay, Bernie.
1081
01:13:36,910 --> 01:13:38,330
Well, it used to just be the two of us,
1082
01:13:38,330 --> 01:13:40,910
now there's busloads of people
just to do the music...
1083
01:13:40,910 --> 01:13:42,380
Hang on, hang on, don't you wanna just
1084
01:13:42,380 --> 01:13:45,800
go there and sing without all
of this ridiculous paraphernalia?
1085
01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:47,260
You know, just
1086
01:13:48,110 --> 01:13:49,560
be yourself, Reg.
1087
01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:52,990
Why the fuck would I want that,
Bernie?
1088
01:13:52,990 --> 01:13:55,980
You wouldn't say this shit to me
if you were a real friend.
1089
01:13:55,980 --> 01:13:58,590
People don't pay to see Reginald Dwight.
1090
01:13:58,590 --> 01:14:01,070
They pay to see Elton John.
1091
01:14:01,230 --> 01:14:04,650
Don't ever tell me
how to do my fucking job.
1092
01:14:11,310 --> 01:14:12,080
Break a leg.
1093
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:19,000
- You don't have to put up with this, Reg.
- Write the fucking lyrics, Bernie!
1094
01:14:19,580 --> 01:14:21,640
Let me deal with the rest.
1095
01:14:27,130 --> 01:14:28,670
- Sorry.
- I know.
1096
01:14:28,670 --> 01:14:31,320
Ladies and gentlemen,
1097
01:14:31,320 --> 01:14:35,630

1118
01:15:57,020 --> 01:15:58,270
Right.
1119
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:00,680
I'll put some coffee on.
1120
01:16:09,930 --> 01:16:12,300
Darling, I've been thinking.
Maybe we should
1121
01:16:12,380 --> 01:16:15,040
quit the booze for a couple of days,
take some quality time together.
1122
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:18,400
Afternoon.
1123
01:16:19,580 --> 01:16:20,990
Mr. Reid.
1124
01:16:26,830 --> 01:16:28,640
- What d'you think you're doing, John?
- Just a bit of rock and roll.
1125
01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:31,020
Rock and roll is not shagging your
secretary in front of the pool boys!
1126
01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:33,850
Rock and roll's getting you
out of your bed in the morning.
1127
01:16:34,750 --> 01:16:37,560
Arranging 250 gigs
in 26 different countries.
1128
01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:40,520
Rock and roll's
actually 112 employment contracts,
1129
01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:42,620
insurance, copyright indemnity,
1130
01:16:42,620 --> 01:16:45,850
renegotiating your previously insane
contracts and wiping your ass.
1131
01:16:45,850 --> 01:16:47,630
You know, all you do, Elton,
is play the piano,
1132
01:16:47,630 --> 01:16:51,420
but, for me, rock and roll is an
87 million dollar a year industry.
1133
01:16:51,420 --> 01:16:54,220
So maybe all I do is play the piano,
but you know what else I do?
1134
01:16:54,220 --> 01:16:55,240
Hmm?
1135
01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:56,840
I pay, John,
1136
01:16:57,450 --> 01:16:59,020
for everything,
1137
01:16:59,020 --> 01:17:01,850
including this house,
which I'd like you to leave now.
1138
01:17:01,850 --> 01:17:05,070
You may still be my manager,
but you and me are finished.
1139
01:17:05,070 --> 01:17:07,210
- You're so predictable.
- No, not predictable.
1140
01:17:07,210 --> 01:17:10,380
I want to be by myself,
not with some arsehole
1141
01:17:10,380 --> 01:17:12,060
who doesn't give a shit about me
1142
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:15,400
and takes the piss day after day!
1143
01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:17,720
- Get out!
- Yoo-hoo!
1144
01:17:17,930 --> 01:17:20,110
- Elton!
- Come here, look at that.
1145
01:17:20,780 --> 01:17:22,040
What are they doing here?
1146
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:25,120
You told me to hire a jet
and fly them over for the gig.
1147
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:28,520
- No, no, next week, John.
- It is next week.
1148
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:30,320
I'm gonna go and fix them a drink.
1149
01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:33,280
Darling, why don't you clean yourself up
because you fucking stink.
1150
01:17:33,488 --> 01:17:36,780
Sheila! It's been too long!
1151
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:39,820
- Beautiful woman.
- Hello, look at this, you lovely lot.
1152
01:17:39,820 --> 01:17:41,520
- Here we are.
- Hi, Nan.
1153
01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:44,960
- Oh, I can't believe I'm actually in America.
- I know.
1154
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:47,080
- Hi, Dad.
- How you doing? Good to see you.
1155
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:48,810
- Elton.
- Hello, Mum.
1156
01:17:48,810 --> 01:17:51,420
Elton, darling,
you remember the Andersons?
1157
01:17:51,420 --> 01:17:53,600
Ah, yes, the Andersons!
1158
01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:55,100
How could we forget the Andersons?
1159
01:17:55,450 --> 01:17:56,910
- Hello.
- Hello.
1160
01:17:58,830 --> 01:18:02,190
And what a shy little boy you were!
1161
01:18:02,190 --> 01:18:03,660
Look at you now!
1162
01:18:03,660 --> 01:18:05,960
Elton, you must give them a tour.
1163
01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:07,720
- Yes, right now, come on.
- Yeah, okay.
1164
01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:09,310
Everyone, Elton is giving a tour.
1165
01:18:09,310 --> 01:18:11,660
- Mum, you're on my gown.
- Don't be rude.
1166
01:18:20,410 --> 01:18:21,550
Excited?
1167
01:18:22,590 --> 01:18:23,720
Car.
1168
01:18:26,990 --> 01:18:29,800
- Bernie, how's it going, man?
- Oh, hey, man, how's it going?
1169
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:31,390
No idea who he is.
1170
01:18:47,260 --> 01:18:48,940
Here he is!
1171
01:18:48,940 --> 01:18:50,780
Ladies, Elton!
1172
01:18:50,780 --> 01:18:52,460
- Hey!
- Hey!
1173
01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:54,880
What are you doing on your own
up here, huh?
1174
01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:58,000
Miserable bastard.
You're missing all the fun downstairs.
1175
01:18:58,140 --> 01:19:01,870
Well, as long as all the fun ain't missing me,
then who gives a shit, Bernie?
1176
01:19:05,340 --> 01:19:06,960
We should get a drink.
1177
01:19:07,550 --> 01:19:10,350
No, we should, we should.
Let's go, let's go get a drink.
1178
01:19:10,350 --> 01:19:12,090
No, we absolutely should.
1179
01:19:12,090 --> 01:19:14,200
- No, I'm telling you, I'm telling you...
- Yeah.
1180
01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:16,090
Go and get a drink.
1181
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,540

- Elton.
- Yes, yes, sorry, you were saying?
1218
01:24:47,310 --> 01:24:49,630
I was saying
that I think I need to take a break.
1219
01:24:50,940 --> 01:24:52,270
You need to take a break.
1220
01:24:52,270 --> 01:24:55,900
I think that I just need to go
and sort myself out a bit.
1221
01:24:58,110 --> 01:24:59,260
What?
1222
01:24:59,310 --> 01:25:02,780
I'm going home for a while.
1223
01:25:03,660 --> 01:25:05,310
That's nice for you.

01:25:05,680 --> 01:25:10,060

both of us just disappear together?

1226
01:25:14,200 --> 01:25:16,360
We'll go to my ranch.
We'll hide away.
1227
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:18,620
We can write like we did.
1228
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:21,420
Like we used to.
1229
01:25:22,590 --> 01:25:25,390
We should go home, Elton.
1230
01:25:26,090 --> 01:25:27,720
Reconnect.
1231
01:25:32,300 --> 01:25:33,850
No, you should go.
1232
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:37,610
There are other writers
I'd like to work with anyway.
1233
01:25:38,590 --> 01:25:40,030
Do me good.
1234
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:42,600
Collaborate with other people.
1235
01:25:43,500 --> 01:25:44,920
I think it's a really good idea.
1236
01:26:08,860 --> 01:26:11,800
My loyal subjects.
1237
01:26:14,520 --> 01:26:16,860
Hello, Australia.
1238
01:26:16,860 --> 01:26:18,240
G'day.
1239
01:26:18,760 --> 01:26:20,910
Oh, shit. Or New York?
1240
01:26:21,610 --> 01:26:22,540
Swindon.
1241
01:26:22,540 --> 01:26:24,320
Or wherever the hell we are.
1242
01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:28,560
Well, if you don't like it, go home.
1243
01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:32,030
It's what everyone else seems
to be doing at the moment.
1244
01:26:34,250 --> 01:26:35,520
Anyway,
1245
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:38,600

I just hope you realise you're choosing
a life of being alone forever.
1261
01:28:32,030 --> 01:28:34,170
You'll never be loved properly.
1262
01:28:34,170 --> 01:28:36,170
When are you going to hug me?
1263
01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:38,220
Don't be soft.
1264
01:28:38,890 --> 01:28:42,010
Life gives you very few chances, Reggie,
and this is one of yours.
1265
01:28:42,010 --> 01:28:44,280
- Who are you?
- You can do anything you want.
1266
01:28:44,480 --> 01:28:46,700
You can be anyone you want.
1267
01:28:47,500 --> 01:28:49,770
And what a shy little boy you were!
1268
01:28:49,770 --> 01:28:51,720
Look at you now.
1269
01:28:51,790 --> 01:28:53,550
What do you want?
1270
01:28:53,660 --> 01:28:56,350
I'm going home for a while.
1271
01:29:28,160 --> 01:29:28,960
What do you want? I'm busy.
1272
01:29:29,260 --> 01:29:31,630
Why don't you get back in the studio
you're paying for?
1273
01:29:33,440 --> 01:29:36,300
Why don't you sell my fucking records?
What's this?
1274
01:29:36,320 --> 01:29:37,390
Hmm?
1275
01:29:37,390 --> 01:29:39,210
Number 11 in Italy?
1276
01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:41,610
The song doesn't work.
That's the problem.
1277
01:29:41,610 --> 01:29:43,370
The record's coked-out MOR shit.
1278
01:29:43,370 --> 01:29:44,910
The problem
1279
01:29:44,910 --> 01:29:46,480
is you
1280
01:29:46,480 --> 01:29:49,370
have never understood me
1281
01:29:49,370 --> 01:29:51,710
and what I have to go through.
1282
01:29:51,710 --> 01:29:54,170
You know what?
I should've sacked you when you left me.
1283
01:29:54,170 --> 01:29:55,200
I am glad I left you.
1284
01:29:55,200 --> 01:29:56,990
It means
I can maintain some objectivity
1285
01:29:56,990 --> 01:29:59,740
in your self-indulgent, myopic
little world.
1286
01:29:59,740 --> 01:30:02,120
Get in the studio and make some music,
or don't.
1287
01:30:02,190 --> 01:30:03,200
I don't care.
1288
01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:10,800
Well, you will when your money runs out.
1289
01:30:13,770 --> 01:30:15,160
Do your worst.
1290
01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:16,990
In fact, take me to court.
1291
01:30:17,070 --> 01:30:19,290
You signed contracts with me years ago,
1292
01:30:19,550 --> 01:30:23,870
so I'll still be collecting my 20%
long after you've killed yourself.
1293
01:30:24,440 --> 01:30:26,780
Get out of my fucking house!
1294
01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:29,470

You should be very proud.

I've watched you play many times,
1305
01:30:59,790 --> 01:31:01,800

1307
01:31:05,310 --> 01:31:06,700

I know.
1335
01:34:56,810 --> 01:34:59,020
Renate didn't deserve that.
1336
01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:03,260
She's a good person.
1337
01:35:05,310 --> 01:35:07,840

Not really. I'm gay.

- Hello, Mum.
1341
01:35:21,180 --> 01:35:23,560
- Sir, would you like me to...
- Maybe a bit later, thank you.
1342
01:35:23,560 --> 01:35:25,160
Hello, son.
1343
01:35:25,710 --> 01:35:27,080
- You all right?
- Yeah, good.
1344
01:35:27,080 --> 01:35:30,030
Just talking about poor Renate.
1345
01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:32,030
Such a lovely woman.
1346
01:35:32,480 --> 01:35:34,410
Divorce can be so painful.
1347
01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:37,900
- Yeah.
- Anyway, celebration is in order.
1348
01:35:39,900 --> 01:35:44,060
We found a lovely villa by the sea.
1349
01:35:44,060 --> 01:35:45,660
It'd be good
if you would talk to John today,
1350
01:35:45,680 --> 01:35:48,510
get the money arranged.
Can't risk losing this one.
1351
01:35:48,510 --> 01:35:51,550
Yeah, in Menorca. It is a lovely place.
You should see it.
1352
01:35:51,550 --> 01:35:54,000
- Menorca, right?
- Hmm.
1353
01:35:55,690 --> 01:35:56,920
What do you wanna go there for?
1354
01:35:57,920 --> 01:35:59,880
- Because you're driving me away.
- Hmm.
1355
01:36:00,120 --> 01:36:01,930
Every time we open a paper,
1356
01:36:01,930 --> 01:36:05,290
there's something about you
and the booze or the drugs, and...
1357
01:36:05,770 --> 01:36:09,480
You're breaking your poor mum's heart.
- Tell you what. I'll write you a check, hmm?
1358
01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:10,990
So she can just buy a new one.
1359
01:36:10,990 --> 01:36:14,060
Typical that you'd say something
like that about me
1360
01:36:14,060 --> 01:36:15,870
when I've given up so much for you.
1361
01:36:16,010 --> 01:36:17,480
What have you given up for me?
1362
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:20,860
Your father, for a start.
1363
01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:28,570
You really are a heartless monster.
1364
01:36:32,700 --> 01:36:35,290
You know,
I don't live my life in black and white.
1365
01:36:36,960 --> 01:36:40,220
I do not want your fucked up frigid ideas
about anything.
1366
01:36:45,500 --> 01:36:48,860
You know, I'm so sick of
running away from who I am.
1367
01:36:51,290 --> 01:36:53,850
There's nothing wrong
with success or pleasure.
1368
01:36:53,850 --> 01:36:55,290
In fact, why am I apologising for it?
1369
01:36:55,290 --> 01:36:58,030
Mum,
I have fucked everything that moves.
1370
01:36:59,310 --> 01:37:02,110
And I've taken every drug known to man.
1371
01:37:02,110 --> 01:37:03,360
All of 'em.
1372
01:37:04,540 --> 01:37:05,980
But you know what?
1373
01:37:07,710 --> 01:37:09,880
I enjoyed every last minute of it.
1374
01:37:09,950 --> 01:37:13,850
Ever since you first tangled
your fat little legs in front of a piano,
1375

you've been lucky.
1376
01:37:15,200 --> 01:37:18,520
You've never worked hard
for a bloody thing in your life.
1377
01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:20,760
It all just comes to you.
You don't do anything.
1378
01:37:20,890 --> 01:37:22,910
And I'm the one who suffers.
1379
01:37:22,910 --> 01:37:25,440
I should never have had children.
1380
01:37:25,440 --> 01:37:29,390

01:39:37,720 --> 01:39:40,360
You left me
at the most important moment, Bernie.
1408
01:39:41,470 --> 01:39:42,860
When did you give up?
1409
01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:47,280
If you don't care about yourself,
how do you expect anyone else to?
1410
01:39:47,280 --> 01:39:51,520
Whenever I needed you most,
you weren't there.
1411
01:39:51,520 --> 01:39:54,380
It's not weak to ask for help.
1412
01:39:54,380 --> 01:39:57,960
I have worked my balls off
to get us out of shit
1413
01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:01,020
day in, day out,
1414
01:40:01,120 --> 01:40:02,080
for years.
1415
01:40:02,080 --> 01:40:04,540
And now it's me
that can't walk down the streets.
1416
01:40:04,540 --> 01:40:08,280
It's me who doesn't have a life.
1417
01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:11,770
'Cause I don't get to sit around
with my feet on a desk
1418
01:40:11,770 --> 01:40:13,640
chewing on the end of a fucking pencil.
1419
01:40:13,640 --> 01:40:15,580
"Just write the lyrics, Bernie.
I'll take care of everything else."
1420
01:40:15,580 --> 01:40:17,400
That was a test.
1421
01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:21,520

01:46:15,888 --> 01:46:20,144

I should have tried to be more ordinary.

Hello, Nan.
1489
01:46:37,616 --> 01:46:39,968
You was never ordinary.
1490
01:46:40,656 --> 01:46:41,664
Look at you.
1491
01:46:42,912 --> 01:46:46,848
In here, talking about your feelings.
1492
01:46:47,264 --> 01:46:49,024
What a waste of time!
1493
01:46:49,020 --> 01:46:52,080
Mum, I know it was never easy,
1494
01:46:52,656 --> 01:46:54,624
and I hope you can forgive me
1495
01:46:56,096 --> 01:46:58,512
because I've realised
that's what we need to do now.
1496
01:46:59,744 --> 01:47:01,216
Forgive each other.
1497
01:47:03,520 --> 01:47:06,304
- Your problem is you're selfish.
- No.
1498
01:47:06,928 --> 01:47:09,440
My problem was
I believed you loved me,
1499
01:47:09,760 --> 01:47:11,232
and you're incapable of it.
1500
01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:14,400
I gave everything to keep something
that I never even had in the first place.
1501
01:47:15,984 --> 01:47:19,120
I always thought
you was an introverted extrovert.
1502
01:47:19,584 --> 01:47:20,656
A what?
1503
01:47:20,650 --> 01:47:23,376
He's shy! He's always been shy!
1504
01:47:23,370 --> 01:47:25,552
It's all his father's fault.
1505
01:47:25,550 --> 01:47:26,960
Don't blame me.
1506
01:47:26,960 --> 01:47:29,296
He would have been strange
regardless.
1507
01:47:29,728 --> 01:47:32,512
Actually, I think I'm okay with strange.
1508
01:47:32,510 --> 01:47:33,936
God.
1509
01:47:33,930 --> 01:47:36,528
- Not him.
- Both of you.
1510
01:47:36,896 --> 01:47:37,712
Stop.
1511
01:47:38,016 --> 01:47:41,616
I'm not going to allow you
to talk to me like this anymore.
1512
01:47:43,070 --> 01:47:45,424
It's about time you said that.
1513
01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:50,528
Bernie.
1514
01:47:53,552 --> 01:47:57,600
- I never told you how much I need you.
- No, no, no, I love you, man.
1515
01:47:59,904 --> 01:48:01,440
Always have, always will.
1516
01:48:02,848 --> 01:48:06,032
You write songs
that millions of people love,
1517
01:48:06,176 --> 01:48:07,376
and that's what's important.
1518
01:48:08,288 --> 01:48:10,656
You just need to remember who you are,
1519
01:48:11,690 --> 01:48:13,152
and be okay with it.
1520
01:48:13,472 --> 01:48:15,584
He doesn't know who he is.
1521
01:48:22,576 --> 01:48:24,000
Yes, I do.
1522
01:48:26,368 --> 01:48:28,576
I'm Elton Hercules John.
1523
01:48:29,968 --> 01:48:32,160
I thought you were Reggie Dwight.
1524
01:48:42,624 --> 01:48:44,944
Haven't been Reggie Dwight for years.
1525
01:48:59,136 --> 01:49:01,072
When are you going to hug me?
1526
01:49:34,032 --> 01:49:36,576
Impressed
you know how to use one of those.
1527
01:49:40,752 --> 01:49:41,216
How you doing?
1528
01:49:43,872 --> 01:49:44,960
Good to see you.
1529
01:49:45,584 --> 01:49:48,304
Some days are tougher than others,
but I feel good.
1530
01:49:49,680 --> 01:49:51,440
They got a piano here?
1531
01:49:52,032 --> 01:49:52,976
You've been playing?
1532
01:49:52,970 --> 01:49:55,440
- Hmm... No.
- No?
1533
01:49:55,440 --> 01:49:57,552
I'm not in the right place
for that just now.
1534
01:49:58,400 --> 01:50:00,032
I'm scared, Bernie.
1535
01:50:03,760 --> 01:50:05,584
What if I'm not as good?
1536
01:50:07,840 --> 01:50:09,632
Without the drinking and the drugs?
1537
01:50:13,168 --> 01:50:15,040
You know that's not true.
1538
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:20,064
You're not scared you're not good without it.
You're scared to feel again.
1539
01:50:20,528 --> 01:50:23,040
You might be able to lie to yourself,
but you can't lie to me.
1540
01:50:27,488 --> 01:50:29,248
I should be going.
1541
01:50:31,856 --> 01:50:33,200
Don't go.
1542
01:50:35,168 --> 01:50:35,760
Not yet.
1543
01:50:37,024 --> 01:50:38,512
This is the part
you gotta do on your own.
1544
01:50:40,288 --> 01:50:43,280
These need music.
1545
