Bowie portrait that’s more miss than hit

Musician turned actor Johnny Flynn (below) has made an impressive transition to the big screen but he comes unstuck here, miscast as a young David Bowie still searching for fame in the early 1970s. He’s not alone in a film that further suffers from having no access to Bowie’s music.
