EARTHBOUND: DAVID BOWIE AND THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH
Book ID/图书代码: 11684017C00036
English Summary/英文概要: Earthbound is the first book-length exploration of a true classic of twentieth-century science-fiction cinema, shot under the heavy, ethereal skies of New Mexico by the legendary British director Nicolas Roeg and starring David Bowie in a role he seemed born for as an extraterrestrial named Thomas Newton who comes to Earth in search of water. Based on a novel by the highly regarded American writer Walter Tevis, this dreamy, distressing, and visionary film resonates even more strongly in the twenty-first century than it did on its original release during the year of the US Bicentennial.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 《大地》是第一个那么长篇探索20世纪的一个真正的经典科幻电影,精简而沉重,由英国导演尼古拉斯•罗格导演的新墨西哥州的飘渺的天空传奇,由大卫•鲍伊主演,他似乎天生就是来扮演这个角色就好像托马斯•牛顿出生来到地球寻找水。这部电影改编自备受尊敬的美国作家沃尔特•特维斯的小说,在21世纪,这部充满梦幻、令人痛苦和幻想的电影比在美国建国200周年之际上映的第一部电影更能引起人们的共鸣。(WYL)
