pieces, such as Jimson

THE MAN WHO
FELL TO EARTH
Before the West
End debut of the
David Bowie musical,
Lazarus, revisit the
British science fiction
film that it's based on:
Nicolas Roeg's The
Man Who Fell To Earth.
This is a uniquely visual
story and Bowie (in his
first leading role) gives
a stellar performance
as an alien, who
comes to Earth to
save his planet. Watch
it and muse how being
human can often feel
alien enough.
