Baal

Bowie goes Brecht – that's how this TV adaptation could be summed up quite well. As a rebellious artistic soul who opposes bourgeois society and fears nothing and no one, let alone respects anyone, Bowie – who, by his own admission, is a big fan of the controversial Alan Clarke – delivers one of his most daring performances, showing what he is capable of as both a singer and an actor. A highlight!
