Young American // A David Bowie Story

Philadelphia, USA, 1974.

"And they all lived happily ever after..." was a phrase Dodge Garrett found herself always repeating to herself throughout childhood and adolescence; for she knew that if she thought positively, the right thing would surely happen. However, before she knew it, she was twenty-four, alone, stuck in the same job, and seemed to think life would be truly be lived unhappily ever after.

That is, until some orange-haired, crooked-toothed English alien comes to town, changing everything that Dodge thought she knew. It seems that the line pointing to the "right" way for a single girl, looking to fade away, to live is starting to blur with that that of a high-class, promiscuous one of a star's. Could it exactly what she thinks: destroy her, or the exact opposite? Who's to know what is right way to go, be, do, live anymore? After all, some play it left-hand.
