Taking home two Golden Globes for Best Motion Picture - Drama category, and Best Actor in a Motion Picture - Drama for Rami Malek's incredible portrayal of Freddie Mercury, Bohemian Rhapsody, the biopic about Queen, was successful in winning the two awards for which it was nominated.

Malek's acceptance speech was touching and he spoke directly to Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor who were in the audience. 

I am beyond moved. My heart is pounding out of my chest right now. This is a profound honor to receive this, and to be counted among such extraordinary actors. I have to thank everyone who worked so tirelessly to make this film what it is. And of course, to Queen. To you, Brian May, to you, Roger Taylor, for ensuring that authenticity and inclusiveness exists in the music and in the world and in all of us. Thank you to Freddie Mercury for giving me this job of a lifetime. I love you, you beautiful man!

The Golden Globes are generally a pretty good indicator for who will take home an Oscar, and in this case, this film deserves every award it receives. 

This side by side comparison of Freddie's performance at Live Aid as portrayed by Malek is outstanding...
