It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I had this on video when it was first made available, but got rid of it during a binge of housecleaning..and NOW I wish I had it again for another view..some of it is interesting (as the other reviewer says, you get to see Bowie pre-dental cosmetics..during Space Oddity Bowie looks like he could bite through a microphone with those huge choppers...the best part of this are the performances of two rare Bowie songs: Ching-a-Ling (with ex girlfriend Hermione) and When I'm Five..the Lindsay Kemp inspired pantomime is pretty embarrassing (was Kemp EVER any good?..his performance in Wickerman is one of the few drawbacks)..oh well..I keep my eyes open for chance to pick this up again ...as a side note, youtube.com has several clips from this for your viewing pleasure

Before David Bowie became an international jet-set ski-bum megastar (and fixed his teeth) he was closely associated with the avant-garde Arts Lab-influenced side of experimental theatre. Heavily influenced by Anthony Newley and Lindsay Kemp, his persona was a sort of geek-pierrot, engaging in a bizarre multiple-death scenario in this 60s short. It's all a bit self-consciously pseudo-profound but it's an interesting oddity for Bowie fans, showing an early stage of the theatricality that would inform his most creative period (1972-78).
