Exhumed Films and PhilaMOCA, on Friday, February 20, present a 16mm screening of Nicolas Roeg’s THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH (1976), starring David Bowie at his ethereal best.
Bowie is unforgettable as Thomas Jerome Newton, an otherworldly visitor who arrives on Earth with a mission to save his dying planet that slowly unravels amid greed, fame, and human excess. Nicolas (WALKABOUT, PERFORMANCE) Roeg’s fractured, hallucinatory style turns this science-fiction tale into a haunting meditation on alienation, celebrity, and the corrosive pull of modern life.
Experience this cult classic projected on 16mm film with a special thematic pre-show of shorts and tv spots.
Doors 7:00 / Movie 7:30 / $15 admission
