Subscribe Free"The Man Who Fell To Earth" is a modern-day allegory and visual tour de force by Roeg. It loosely follows the adventures of a space traveler (Bowie) who comes to Earth seeking water for his drought-stricken planet but gets distracted by Earthly diversions. The film is a true hallucinatory vision and watershed of the 1970s, and is included here as the original full-length 139-minute version. (Gary Reber)
