hi! my name is matt, from farmingdale long island...
i LOVED this video! ever since i saw this video, it has given me the strength to come out about MY partner David! we are so in love, and after seeing elton and his partner, david fuuuurnish, we have decided to be open about our love-to our families and friends. THANKS ELTON AND HIS PARTNER DAVID FUUURNISH

When Elton John said on this documentry that he wanted to do something different, he said it all. I've never seen anything as revealing as this one. This is a great tape if you are a Elton John fan or not. He says on the tape he was gald he had done this. Then why was it recalled? On this tape you will find Elton John to be at his best, and at is worse (hence the word"tantrums") There is never a dull moment on this tape. The tape itself was shot by Elton's life partner, and I think that it was because of this is why you will see Elton so candid. I actually feel that he forgot that the camera was rolling at times, perhaps this had something to do will the re-call of this tape? If you are able to get a copy of this tape, make sure that you get the director's cut because it really does have unseen footage and interviews, plus The Rio De Janeiro concert. The director's cut was never seen on the HBO Special and is a full two hours long. This gem is truly special, even if your not a collector.

Since I am practically blind I have been picked on all of my life. Ever since I found out about Elton John he has filled me with joy and happyness and helps me get through each day of my life. This movie has just brought out the best of me. and ofcourse the best of him. He means so much to me and I am going to do whatever it takes to meet him. Even if it was for 2 minutes. Just for a time that short it would make me feel like I could see completely again and live the rest of my life knowing that dreams do come true to those who BELIEVE.

Though not an Elton John fanatic, I was enthralled by this "fly on the wall" movie. Excellent concert footage mixed with behind the scenes documentary which leaves nothing to the viewers imagination. Bad language abounds, but it all adds to the magic of this no holds barred insight into one of Rock's most successful solo artists. Elton's tantrums are abundant but his performances on this documentry keep his tiara brightly sparkling. Excellent viewing, very highly recommended!

This documenty shows the real Elton, as far as I can tell and gave me a greater respect for his hardwork and spirit. I love this tape and wouldn't give it up for anything, except to meet the man himself!
