amo esta película, es hermosa! Tiene todo lo que una película chida debe tener: música cool, hombres hermosos y una historia que enlaza a dos de las más representativas figuras de la historia del rock: David Bowie e Iggy Pop
@TheAssassinsAssassin Oh, I can´t, im SO poor, and i live in a third world country, it is difficult for my to find the money but to find the movie too.
Some elements from Lou Reed are incorportated into McGregors character, but no real Velvet Underground connections. "Velvet Goldmine" is actually a great song by Bowie, a left-out from Ziggy Stardust album. Correct me if I'm wrong.
this movie is loosely based around Bowie, notice the dress worn during Sebastian, is very bowie influenced he wore one almost exactly like it, and the outfit with the one arm during Baby's on Fire, that was taken from Bowie's Ziggy stage. and Tommy was based around 80's Bowie I believe
it is about Iggy Pop and Andy Warhola too....Jack Fairy being the host of a Warhol-esq party in the middle and everyone saying HE was where it started...and Warhol IS where the Velvets started so.....
the character Wilde IS....I stress this it
IS Iggy Pop's persona / character incarnate. If you ask me...Ewan's TV Eye is slightly better then stooges/Iggy's was
and since bowie and iggy actually toured together and then lived together in berlin it is REALLY hard to imagine its not them.
I LOVE this song!!! The chorus is the best part by far!!! I haven't finished watching the movie yet but so far I'm in love with it and Brian is seriously HOT!
Permanently got this stuck in my head - what a film!

@Aramikah It's a good movie and he's a great actor, but having a passion for someone else's craft is kind of sad.

The movie that this song comes from was inspired by Bowie during his Ziggy Stardust days and the height of Glam Rock.
