How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A visually dazzling, theatrically unrestrained musical that uses Elton John's music and surreal fantasy sequences to explore the exhilaration and pain of his rise to fame. It's a celebration of self-acceptance wrapped around the darker truths of addiction and loneliness.
