	In reply to the person who thinks that the film in *The Man Who Fell
to Earth* was an "instant colour film" -- I must be the only person who looked
closely enough to see that the point is that THE PHOTAGRAPHER IS INSERTED INTO
THE PICTURE ALTHOUGH HE/SHE IS BEHIND THE CAMERA!!!!!  Later in the movie 
there's a snippet of a commercial for the product on one of Bowie's many TV
screens; the slogan is "[whateveritscalled] puts YOU in the picture."
