Moonage Daydream is the cinematic experience David Bowie deserves
which is, depending on your point of view, either a gutsy move or a failure. Someone who buys a ticket with a familiarity level of “yeah, ‘Modern Love,’ ‘Rebel, Rebel,’ and, uh, ‘Life on Mars?’ That’s David Bowie, right?” will be pretty baffled by this film. To use theexample, they might wonder why the hell this rock star keeps showing up in a Japanese prisoner of war camp.
Morgen’s steadfastness in refusing to offer context for some of these visual counterpoints is, in this critic’s opinion, a panacea against boring documentaries. It goes further, with spasmodic trips through associative images. An old interview of Bowie talking about the art of performance inserts clips from, Mickey Mouse, Buster Keaton, cheesy ’50s sci fi, and actual images from outer space into the blender.
