Nicolas Roeg’s sensual and adventurous sci-fi follows the story of an alien (David Bowie, in his big-screen debut) who arrives to Earth on a complex mission. Shown in its uncut version, the film has a hallucinatory power, with great support from Buck Henry, Candy Clark and Rip Torn. (U.S., 1976, 139m)
