David Bowie and William Shakespeare form a duo in “Hunky Dory,” a film set in Wales in 1976 in which an adventurous teacher played by Minnie Driver gets her students to do a musical version of “The Tempest.” The Bard’s words remain rooted in the early 17th century; the music is vintage ’70s and ’60s — Bowie, ELO, Pink Floyd, Beach Boys and Nick Drake to name a few.

Bowie. Bowie. David Bowie. Now He’s In Shakespeare.
They only mention David Bowie once in the trailer, but the movie is called Hunky Dory, so I assume there’s more.
