Overview
Hammersmith Odeon, London, July 3, 1973. British singer David Bowie performs his alter ego Ziggy Stardust for the very last time. A decadent show, a hallucinogenic collage of kitsch, pop irony and flamboyant excess: a musical symbiosis of feminine passion and masculine dominance that defines Bowie's art and the glam rock genre.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A dazzling, high-octane document of glam rock at its most theatrical and uncompromising, Bowie's farewell to Ziggy Stardust crackles with androgynous provocation and visual excess that feels genuinely radical even now.
