a review of 天鹅绒金矿

everyone is bisexual, both in real life, and in this movie, which means it should be better than it is. don't get me wrong it's really fun, but there are too many stories in here. we don't get much character development, the vehicle of retelling this story though the lens of a journalist trying to put together a nostalgia piece occludes and confuses a lot of the story telling. the fact that it's a bowie biopic but it's not a bowie biopic...the blend of complete fiction with details from real life is distracting. it's fun, and it's fine, it just never really got there for me.
