Velvet Goldmine

Glam rock - as done by Christian Bale, Jason Rhys Meyers, and Ewan McGregor. The best part is the music - scenes of with Stooges, Lou Reed, and Eno tracks are done wonderfully. Note - Bowie hated the script so he vetoed the right for any of his music to appear in the film - maybe because 'Brian Slade', a sex and coke fiend, is pretty much based on Ziggy-era Bowie. Not that great of a story, but the acting is pretty solid (it's Bale, of course it's solid). Recommended to the sexually confused and / or Bowie fans.
