David Bowie & The Story of Ziggy Stardust

Country: UK, Language: English, 60 mins

  • 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.
