Candy coated Moonage Daydream

https://moonagedaydream.film/videos/ I enjoyed this "historic collage". I hesitate to use words like biopic or documentary. It was a delightful reminisce. However, Brett Morgen was not objective. The film glossed over a lot, for example, they never mentioned Iggy Pop or cocaine. That is ok. This visual confection was approved by his estate (Bowie died 10 January 2016) and that isn't how they want their dad remembered. I was pleased that they shared some of his paintings, video work and sculpture. I loved the concert footage. I fully intend to own this so I can use it like a Teddy Bear. I wish Gretchen could have seen it. She would have loved it. I miss her so much. We would've painted our faces with Ziggy's lightning bolt. We'd have gotten Japanese food for dinner before and gone out for drinks after, picking it apart and talking all night. https://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?rs=ac&len=2&q=david%20bowie&eq=david%20bowie&etslf=8927
