At todays press conference for the film, the moderator brought up Egertons tears immediately.
Alright, alright, laughed Egerton, blushing.
Lets stop talking about it.
I got a little emotional.
It was one of the best moments of my life.
But then Egerton almost immediately started crying again.
I love that song.
Its the most beautiful song ever written.
David [Furness] and Elton really allowed me into their lives, said Egerton.
My girlfriend and I spent a lot of time with them.
We actually went to stay with them a few days before filming.
We got quite drunk one night, and security caught me stealing from his kitchen at 3 A.M. Hes the kindest, most interesting, warm man.
You really can ask him anything.
Hes so much fun.
Something you shouldnt ask Egerton, though?

At the conference, Egerton interrupted a reporter who posed that question.
Thats a horrible question, he said.
Im very proud that were mentioned in the same breath, but our movie is a different animal.
