Roeg&#8217;s film has beguiled and baffled audiences since it&#8217;s release. It explores, often in abstraction and allegory, the themes of alienation, power, love, trust and betrayal.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>David Bowie is The Man Who Fell To Earth is an attempt to partly explain the movie. And it is a look at the way the film came together and at Roeg\u2019s working methods, and at the creative process itself. And because it is a film about the creative process, it was felt that it should also in itself, try to also be creative.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>It is quite widely known that Bowie and his music were greatly influenced by Roeg and the time he spent working on the film. And so David Bowie is The Man Who Fell To Earth also tries to paint a small portrait of Bowie and his music during the era \u2013 from latter part of \u201974 up to the January 1977 album, Low. Bowie also created music that was intended for the soundtrack to The Man Who Fell to Earth. Famously, it was never used and remains almost unheard to this day. However, parts of the unused music were later incorporated into his albums Station To Station and Low. And so, as part of the story telling in David Bowie is The Man Who Fell To Earth, some of Bowie\u2019s music from those albums is used with re-edits of scenes from the movie, worked in with the interviews and commentary.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Whether or not David Bowie is The Man Who Fell To Earth is actually successful in these endeavors, you may judge for yourself. At the very least it is an hour in the brilliant and highly enjoyable company and art of Nic Roeg, David Bowie and Candy Clark. <\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"fcbkbttn_buttons_block\" id=\"fcbkbttn_middle\"><div class=\"fcbkbttn_like \"><fb:like href=\"http:\/\/www.jensunmack.dk\/wordpress-3\/the-bowie-who-fell-to-earth\/\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"dark\" layout=\"standard\"  width=\"225px\" size=\"small\"><\/fb:like><\/div><div class=\"fb-share-button  \" data-href=\"http:\/\/www.jensunmack.dk\/wordpress-3\/the-bowie-who-fell-to-earth\/\" data-type=\"button_count\" data-size=\"small\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lad os da endelig markere den store omrejsende David Bowie-udstillings \u00e5bning i Brooklyn, New York City i dag med en Bowie-post.
