Cracked Actor: David Bowie
"I am an actor, I play parts, fragments of myself." When this programme filmed
David Bowie in Hollywood in 1974, he was discarding the legendary character he had created in Ziggy Stardust - along with the elaborate costume and make-up which it involved - to assume a new and even more enigmatic persona. The documentary was directed by Alan Yentob , who is now Controller of BBC2.
