Really really good documentary. The Man Who Changed The World is an intimate film that follows David Bowie's continual evolution throughout his music career. This is more that a celebration of his career because I learnt so much about Bowie's life. In particular his struggle to get known. Really recommend this.

As someone who has watched the odd documentary about him and listened to stories about him on the radio, I have to say that this documentary was fascinating in that it covers much of his background. The absence of original songs is pretty much my only quibble. If hardly perfect, this is an entertaining look at one of the most influential musicians of all time It would be difficult to say anything about David Bowie without sounding patronizing. My summary line says it all

I saw Bowie from a new angle after watching this. If you're looking for a great retrospective on the life and impact of Bowie, see this for a reminder of what made him so very special.
