Wow… my good friend
@celyn_jones has absolutely knocked this one out the park. I’m super proud of him to be honest.

I’ve known Celyn for years... not only is he a ridiculously talented actor and director, he’s also just a genuinely beautiful dude. What a fucker. Seriously though… if you’re lucky enough to know Celyn, he’ll never stop singing your praises to whoever’s around and making you feel like you can do anything.
It feels soooo good seeing him get his shine with this new film. Well done Celyn and everyone involved in bringing this story to the big screen. You all killed it.

‘MADFABULOUS’ is the true story of someone who marched entirely to the beat of their own drum and didn’t give a damn. It’s beautifully crafted, emotional, funny, wildly entertaining and honestly just a great film. I loved it.
The Bowie of his era, Henry Paget was one of the most extraordinary and flamboyant figures in British history. After inheriting a vast fortune in the 1890s, he burned through the equivalent of hundreds of millions in today’s money on theatre productions, jewellery, costumes and a life lived completely on his own terms.
At a time when society demanded conformity, Paget turned his entire life into performance art challenging ideas around class, masculinity and identity decades ahead of his time.
He died at just 29 years old, leaving behind scandal, myth and a legacy that still feels wildly modern today.
