The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976)

God almighty is Bowie simply oooozing sex appeal in this movie. Woof.  Obv. at the height of his coke use, oh yes. He barely weighs 9 stone, i'd imagine.

I dont usually do androgyny, like Marilyn Manson never ever did anything for me at all. But Bowie? Mmmyes.

The movie aint half bad either. I love movies made the year I was born, like the Omen, and this. Gives me some insight into what the world was like when I came into it. Bit gratuitous in the floppy willies department, but still.

Bits and pieces as Jim Henson's muppets never did anything for me, and I dont like that Jennifer Connelly girl one jot.

However... i may watch it just to see Teh Bowie in action. *thud*

I remember drooling over him as Tesla in The Prestige, at least a page or two ago. Yes. God he was hawt even in Zoolander, lol.

he is strangely hot in that.

I cannot remember him being in Zoolander. Must watch it again.

When Stiller faced off in his posing or whatever versus Owen Wilson, Bowie was the referee. Hysterical.

when I first watched it, I didn't think it was that good - Ben stiller annoys me a bit - but I'll try it again. :)

Oh yeah, Stiller annoys me too. But Owen Wilson is cute, and the Bowie cameo is brief, but poignant :D

Is left-handed good? I'm left-handed. My grandfather was too. It's quite cool but people keep swapping my mouse over to the wrong side of the keyboard.

I saw this film when I was a reasonably young college student. It disturbed me immensely. I just sobbed for him at the end. I didn't understand a lot of it either -- it's sooooooo surreal. And his poor family. *sniff*

It was made the year i was born, lol.

There was a lot of gratuitous sex in it, i thought, and lots of male nudity. But ignoring all that, it was a good film, i thought. Makes you think anyways.
