This review is from: David Bowie: Under Review 1976-79 - The Berlin Trilogy (DVD)

Many argue that Bowie was at his creative peak with the Berlin trilogy (Low, Heroes, Dodger). This low-tech DVD examines the albums in depth, mostly with dry interviews about the circumstances around the albums.

There's little in the way of old video and the sound is mediocre. It's mostly voiceovers with slow shots of album covers and academic style interviews with unfamiliar people.

There is some interesing content. For example, who knew V2 Schneider was an ode to Kraftwerk?

Sometimes it's hard to know where Bowie is coming from. The DVD clears up some of his motivations and has some interesting details about his life and music creation process.

However, overall it's dull. If you love the Berlin trilogy and want to learn about Bowie in a dry, mildly academic way then this is the disc for you.

If you want a movie that rocks with tons of classic video then look elsewhere.
