YESSS.

I really need to see THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH again. And, you know very well that LOW is one of my favorite albums of all time. I'd love to see this documentary.

Now that's coolness. I'd love to see this film. Love Bowie.
Haven't seen THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH in ages.

I love LOW as well. It's been years since I saw TMWFTE...I will have to check out the Criterion edition one of these days. I didn't know about the doc--too bad it couldn't be included with the aforementioned Criterion disc.

If not, enjoy!

i know i've found a home now. i had no idea so many others loved low as much as i do. roeg can do no wrong in my book. just re-watched bad timing last week and despite 2 hours of staring at art garfunkle, it's a masterpiece.

I love the Low album. It's an incredible album. I've never seen this film though. Always wanted to since I'm such a big Bowie fan.

Kotto - Amen, regarding BAD TIMING. That movies gets no love, but it is absolutely phenomenal.

Thansk everyone for the comments. Sorry I have been late in responding, it's been a busy week.
Nice to see so much love for Bowie and Roeg here...two guys who altered the way I look at art for the better.

BTW...Bad Timing is the shit, an absolute masterpiece.
