A new David Bowie documentary, David Bowie: The Last Five Years, chronicles the late singer through his final two albums, The Next Day and Blackstar. Directed by Francis Whately, who chronicled Bowie’s 1970’s period in his 2013 documentary David Bowie: Five Years, follows Bowie’s final chapter of his career after emerging from a hiatus to record his final two albums while battling an illness that would take his life. “He wanted to make his final act one to remember,” says Whately. “And one way of coping with the pain of the treatment and knowing what was going to happen was to keep himself occupied. I wanted to look at his final period through the prism of the past.” David Bowie: The Last Five Years will air on HBO in January. Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
