MOONAGE DAYDREAM

Director: Brett Morgen

2022, 134min., PG-13

 

Moonage Daydream is an unconventional take on the life and genius of David Bowie, one of the most creative and influential artists of our time. But to many of the fans still mourning his death in 2016, Bowie was more than just a songwriter and performer – he inspired a generation (or two) to reinvent themselves and embrace freedom of thought, gender identity, musical expression and fashion. Told through sublime, never-before-seen footage, performances and music, Brett Morgen’s (The Kid Stays in the Picture, Cobain: Montage of Heck) movie explores David Bowie’s musical and spiritual journey from London to the entire world…and perhaps the universe beyond. Moonage Daydream is first film sanctioned by his estate, which contributed rare or previously unreleased live tracks remixed by Bowie’s longtime producer, Tony Visconti. Hearing Bowie songs including Life on Mars, Changes, and Let’s Dance on Cinestudio’s exceptional sound system is an experience that shouldn’t be missed!

“A pristine sensory voyage, with astonishing sound – in particular remastered Bowie concert audio – which calls for big-screen, event treatment for fans and converts-to-be.” Finnuala Hallligan, Screen
