In the US it was being reviewed mostly by LGBT media and was described specifically as an exploration of Freddie's life and its historical trajectory with the media AIDS panic/healthcare AIDS crisis. (Since many people are still dying of AIDS it is hard to write about this historically.)
Anyway, without going into my politics of AIDS rant right now, I am interested because many years ago I wrote a paper about Freddie as an AIDS artist. (Realizing he may have rejected that label for himself, he nevertheless fits the bill.) I will post when I get a chance to read it :)
