The Man Who Fell To Earth

A film by Nicolas Roeg
Starring David Bowie, Rip Torn, Buck Henry and Candy Clark

You have to believe it to see it.

New 35mm Print of the Original European Version

Leaving his drought-stricken planet, space oddity David Bowie arrives on Earth where, thanks to his highly advanced technology, he becomes a wealthy industrialist. Bowie’s cinematic debut only brightened his already iconic cultural status, aided by a notable cast of very earthly creatures: Buck Henry, Candy Clark and Rip Torn. It also cemented Nicholas Roeg’s reputation as one of the era’s most original filmmakers. Cut by 20 minutes in it’s original 1976 US run, this 35th anniversary release is the complete director’s version.
