Memorable art often is born from pain. Could be a broken heart. Could be a broken home. But art that stands the test of time too often can be traced back to an inspirational source of tragedy, and that has been proven time and again over the years.
Elton John can attest to this notion. In the new film Rocketman, its made clear that the piano prodigys home life as a child was a struggle, with his parents Stanley (Steven Mackintosh) and Sheila (Bryce Dallas Howard) being less than accepting of his talents and musical aspirations. It only got worse as the singer/songwriters career flourished.
Seeing as how Bryce Dallas Howard comes from a show business family, we wondered if she had a hard time connecting with a parental figure who didnt support the fantastic dreams of a gifted child. And during a recent Rocketman press day in London, Howard told CinemaBlend:
I not only struggled to connect, I questioned it. A lot. I had a lot of questions for production, but what I was interested in was hearing about Sheila from people who were not involved in the production. So I had a lot of confidential conversations, and again and again and again, heard stories where I realized that it was actually worse than what it was on the [script] page. Its not that it tipped over into abuse. But it was absolutely chronic cruelty. It was an incredibly toxic, dysfunctional relationship.
Elton John, according to Rocketman, didnt necessarily rebel against his strict parenting, but he did seek out new relationships through music. After studying at a sophisticated music academy, he gravitated to rock and roll, and eventually found a spiritual and artistic kinship with lyricist Bernie Taupin (Jaime Bell). Their collaborations span a lifetime, and still produce hits to this day.
In fact, when I pointed out to Bryce Dallas Howard that Elton Johns gift prevailed through the emotional hardship put upon him by his misguided mother, the actress wisely clarified:
He was able to overcome that. I feel like he had that gift within him always. For me, Im still like, Gosh, what could it have been if she hadnt have treated him like that? What more he always would have been extraordinary. But he would have been happier earlier.
Shes right. Sir Elton John has achieved perhaps the highest level of success in his chosen field. But theres no telling how smoother his path might have been if he had received the support that he craved from Day One. Then again, without those hardships, we might never have a dramatic musical like Rocketman to appreciate in theaters.
