It came at last. TheRussian satell ite channelTV 6 had shown TheMan Who Fell To Earth(1976, director NicolasRoeg, starring DavidBowie) as late nightmovie. And it found mesitting alone with thetelly in the dark kitchenafter seven years ofwaiting. After all,Id liketo suggest The Man

Who Fell To Earth to beone of the mostimportant films evermade. The fact that ithas become the part ofmy life (after seeing itone only time) evencant express that itreally ment to me.

So the story goes backto the fresh post Soviet times in one of the Baltic states, Lithuania,whenThe Man Who Fell To Earth was shown for the first time (its 1991 !) inVilnius, unofficially in video hall (re-recorded video, projected on thescreen). I got there young and poor being a long time fan of DavidBowie, but I had no idea about the film.

Every thing was stunning from the beginning. Heavenly and thinhero,color of the hair,every move,every shot (though the showingquality was far less than good). Sound of translation (in Russianlanguage) was terrible and I could hardly catch the words.But I wastotally taken by the view.

And here comes that QUESTION, that you wanted to ask all this time,addressed to Mr.Newton (David Bowie) - Are you Lithuanian?" Canyou imagine how would you feel sitting in that cold hall, beingLithuanian,and keeping eye on David all the time ! The audience waswaiting breathlessly (Lithuanians,anyway !). No - was the answer(though not so sure). The hall got easier with one conventional sigh.But,I think,I stayed breathless till the end (of the movie). It wasimpossible to think of nothing during it. But,walking home,somethingabsolutely new thought walked in through the doors of my mind.

I was taken by the idea of film but I couldn't even recover it at first.

The Man Who Fell To Earth is exceptional by its courage to keep thethings in secret. Its mysticism lies even in editing style that is socreatively developed.

That alien is both the man,yeah,look at the title - I said to my self,-man. We keep our consciousness too tight.

The Man Who Fell To Earth has very few features common tonormal science fiction tale. There was the end and the audience leftthe hall misunderstood - not even any flying object.

Also theres no such thing as typical stupid film emotionality. By thisreason some could find David Bowie cold, acting like the real alien.Is it in the character (Thomas Jerome Newton) or does this cool actorsuits the role so perfect ? For me its a higher dimension of being,related to that could be called sacred, no hate and no euphoria, -deep knowing within. David Bowie creates the role using hisextraordinary personality.

Maybe the key is also in understanding the term alien in this tale.

I was sketching different pieces of the vision left in my mind after thefilm and I felt like coming through the gates. Alien is the feeling,itscondition of the soul rather than time or distance.

Let me mention that at the time of seeing the film I was step-by-stepinterested in UFO phenomena but even more stronger I was underinfluence of the Gnosticism. But this strange relation between theGnostic thoughts and The Man Who Fell To Earth was too much evenfor my young heart. But what to say, when in the book of NAGHAMMADI LIBRARY IN ENGLISH (Brill Editions,1988), in the seriousafterward essay The modern relevance of Gnosticism(Gnosticreflection in the western art) by Richard Smith, you will find lot ofbooks mentioned,but theres one and only film The Man Who Fell ToEarth is named as exposing the Gnostic myth !

You are the stranger to this world - the statement so strong not onlyin Gnosticism but in other movements of the Early Christianity. There aremore good studies on Gnosticism,like Hans Jonas book from the fiftiesThe Gnostic Religion, that stresses the alien importance among thecircles of Early Christianity movement. And nowadays there areresearch work and ideas by mythologist John Lash.

But, maybe its not necessary to compare The Man Who Fell To Earthwith something else.

And the thing is that the film expresses all breathtaking truths aboutother realms so perfectly. You could jump to the other dimension byviewing it, but also its both a very earthly film.

It amazes,that The Man Who Fell To Earth uses no religious attributesand is a film of great Spirituality.

Let's view it one more time.
