David Bowie he was an actor. And it is convenient to remember his cinematographic work on this day that has been filled with tributes aimed at commemorating the artist's career. For this and many other things, Bowie was a versatile and versatile artist.
As the protagonist he participated in The man who came from the stars, in which he played an alien who came to earth in search of water for his native planet. Between the eye-catching cameos they were the one who did in Zoolander and The Last Temptation of Christ (Like Pontius Pilate).
It belongs to that class of actors who have been more attracted to music and have interpreted the music. Although Bowie was a musical star, perhaps his love for acting could not separate him from film either. And that stayed with his son, who has also started a good career as a film director. It could not be otherwise.
Even over the years we couldn't avoid surprising us to see him play Nikola Tesla in the brilliant movie of Nolan, The Prestige.
But without a doubt one of the roles that have marked me the most since I was a child was the one he played in Labyrinth. Cult movie in which Bowie undoubtedly contributed a lot to assigning this category. The way of interpreting, the music that he himself composes for the film. It's watching this movie over and over again and knowing that he enjoyed the role more than usual.
Perhaps in this role of sorcerer he accomplished everything he wanted to be. And it is that Bowie made his life, his style and his vision art. If we talk about the fact that it is well known that a good actor plays, sings and dances, Bowie was a great actor. And we couldn't pass up the opportunity to remember him on a day like today.
Because the astronaut has gotten carried away. And he looks at us all from infinite space.
