David Bowie & The Story of Ziggy Stardust
- Director: James Hale
- Producer: Paul Bullock; James Hale
CGiii Comment
Mr Bowie doesn't actually appear...which kind of makes the whole thing redundant.
Listening to friends, foes and fallen stars spout endlessly on - well, it wears a little thin after a while...all the bitching and beatitudes.
An exercise in archival patchwork...
Watch...here
The(ir) Blurb...
Both a visual flashback and a telling of the life and birth of the alter ego that was David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust.
