Truth.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg survived an early stage but she’s literally the only example I can think of. And clearly, she’s not a good metric by which to judge anything since she’s clearly some kind of insane genetic anomaly or an alien or something.
The stages of cancer don’t specifically refer to time, but expanse/severity. So it’s not like he found out too late, it’s just his cancer is worse than the lesser stages.
I have one friend who was diagnosed with stage 1 pancreatic cancer by sheer accident. He went to the doctor for unrelated back pain and they caught it very, very early. He has survived more than five years now, which is crazy rare. He should buy lottery tickets, because his luck is unreal.
One of the reasons why pancreatic cancer is so deadly is that it’s silent. There are other cancers that are, or can be, found on the early side. Very often, by the time that pancreatic cancer is discovered, it’s at a late stage.
Yes. My dad died of it. We didn’t know he had it until it went into his liver. He was dead within two weeks of his diagnosis.The doctor called it a “silent killer.”
I think it just doesn’t present symptoms for a long while, and when it does they are kind of ‘eh, what? maybe? I guess I’m just tired’.
All men, let's not discriminate based on color.
No my dude, we’re all allowed to hate whomever we want. What we do with that hate, that’s where we get into legal murk.
It does indeed. I haven’t seen it, but I assume he then turned to the camera, smiled, and gave a thumbs up?
It definitely makes it worse.
There’s 52 cuts in 82 seconds despite the entire scene just being them sitting at a table talking. It’s totally unnecessary.
I think that makes it worse?
It was the worst, laziest trash I’ve seen in DECADES.
I disagree. I truly hated this movie. I tried to walk out and my friends got mad. It's really terrible. It was so, so BORING. That alone should be a crime when describing Freddie. Usually a biopic is a B movie. This was an F. Very rarely is the subject of a biopic so glamorous, glorious, and representative of the peak…
I’ve read that this is basically Freddie Mercury as filtered through the other members of Queen first and foremost, because they effectively had a veto on the production.
I also feel like all the complaining about his ‘straight relationship’ with Mary is downplaying what was in fact a very significant relationship... to the point that when he died he left her a large part of his fortune, including a share of the publishing and his home in London, which she still lives in today.... so…
And they most certainly did not show that the band played South Africa during apartheid.
I dont know how was portrayed in the movie, but in real life, Mary and Freddie were together for 7 years and engaged to be married. She left him after she realized that Freddie wasn’t bisexual, as he was asserting, but was gay. She claimed that she realized it would be holding him back by pretending they could be…
Freddie Mercury met Mary Austin in 1969 and they dated and were friends for 22 years until his death in 1991 and he left a significant chunk of his estate to her. He met Jim Hutton in the 1980s, didn’t get along at the start, then they dated for his last seven years. Hutton and Mercury did not spend 20 years together…
