WATCH: Gary Oldman In New Bowie Video

NSFW - especially if you work for the pope

David Bowie has released a third video for 2013 – to accompany the title track from his excellent comeback album The Next Day.

The short film – which is as much tongue in cheek as it is satirical – features Gary Oldman hardly playing against type as a punchy, hard drinking, womanising priest in an ecclesiastical strip club.

The video, directed by Floria Sigismondi, also features Academy Award winning French actress Marion Cotillard as a stigmatic stripper.
