Johnny Flynn in Stardust (2020)
David Bowie is one of the most seminal legends in music history; but who was the man behind the many faces? In 1971, a 24-year-old fledgling David Bowie (Johnny Flynn) is sent to America to promote his newest record, The Man Who Sold the World. Leaving behind his pregnant wife Angie (Jena Malone), Bowie and his band embark on a makeshift coast-to-coast promotional tour with struggling Mercury Records publicist Rob Oberman (Marc Maron).

    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The film was created without official permission from Bowie's family and therefore is not licensed to include any of his songs.
    • Goofs
      There is a scene where Bowie opens a car window to have a cigarette and this causes all of Oberman's important papers to fly out onto the road. However, when Oberman pulls the car over (to collect all the papers from the road) you can clearly see that the only window in the car that wasn't open was the one that Bowie opened and then quickly closed.

    Dreadful
    Terrible movie, Marc Bolan is a 60 year old woman in a black curly wig, Bowie looks like Noel Fielding's resurrected zombie twin. We couldn't watch it, turned it off about one third the way through, just dreadful.

    FAQ1

    • Why was this movie made even though it went against Bowie and his family's wishes and doesn't include any of his music because they didn't want the movie made??
