What a book that is as well. One of my favourite autobiographies that I have read.

Sounds like a job for Taron Egerton

I read this as being gazzaniga the movie, and was like cool but I don't see how you could fit much of a narrative arc.

(though I would definitely watch that film!)

I thought that’s what I was watching when I went to see Joaquin Phoenix in The Joker?

Thinking the same will have to have a good budget to get him though.

He seems to be the go-to biopic guy. Did Elton John's film recently, too. Must just have one of those acting abilities and faces.

I think he could pull off the gazza look
