The Man Who Fell to Earth (50th Anniversary) (4K)
In The Man Who Fell To Earth, starman David Bowie plays the extraterrestrial role he was born to play. Searching for water for a drying planet, an alien is shipwrecked on Earth. To finance his return, he uses his advanced knowledge to set up a technological business empire. Deception and seduction lurk around every corner. Based on this premise, Roeg builds a complex stack of allegories for trust, loneliness, lust and hope. After 50 years, the film is still as elusive, mysterious, philosophical, breathtaking and meaningful as ever.
