Velvet Goldmine - TRAILER (1998) [HD]

The story follows a British journalist, Arthur Stuart, who has to search his own past when writing an article about the mysterious disappearance of a former glam-rock star, Brian Slade, for an American periodical. The film turns Slade's paranoia of being murdered during a concert (a paranoia that Bowie incorporated into the Ziggy Stardust story in the climax of the Ziggy Stardust album) into a career-ending publicity stunt by Slade, after which he gradually disappears from the public view entirely. As Stuart locates and talks with people connected to Slade, trying to find out what happened, he revisits the glam-rock scene of the 70s in a series of vignettes, which recreate the stories of Slade, Wild, and others involved in their lives.

One of my all time favourite films, but I feel sorry for anyone who saw that trailer and thought it was going to be a murder mystery.

[ginaleahy]

Never has a trailer been less about a movie.

[clintparsons]

I am not sure how I developed specifically, but I do promise that this movie had a formative impact on my teenage years.

[ellietur]

This trailer seriously does the film no justice

Fantastic music. What a shame people only think in Disco music when talk about the seventies. We had glam rock which was too far out to survive. But it was infinite while it lasted.

LOVE this movie. Play and play it over and over... never get tired of it.

[ashvalerust]

One of the best soundtracks for a film

One of the most quotable movies of all time

[Ilma]

one of the best movies in history. One of the worst trailers in history.

1:02 I can watch that hundreds of times.

[SerialGothQueens]

The trailer definitely does not do this movie justice.

[dawngough]

Will have to revisit this. Had this image in my head of someone playing an ‘Angie Bowie’ like character well. This has just clarified for me that it was a Tony

[CosmicChannel]

this one I have to see although I get that the trailer doesn't do the movie any justice, it makes me even more curious!

[fromchomleystreet]

The elevator pitch would be “Citizen Bowie”

[jaceec]

imagine that by trying to cover up the Gay™ u end up making a trailer THIS bad

[ceemartin]

I saw this film when it came out in the cinema and loved it, had to watch it three times. I've also got the DVD and have rewatch it time to time. I just love it.

0:35 Christian Bale? How he changed throughout the years. the movie will be on tv next week where i live.

In the Music Business people rise high and then they fall low - there is stiff competition between bands - your star can shine a long time, but if you are too sure of yourself and vain your star can fade into forget, forget, forget ....only certain people who adapt themselves to the tastes of their audience, can last long.Like Madonna ....
