Festivds recs (part 2 of 2)
Festivids Masterlist
Herewith, a few vids for shows/movies I know, plus a few extras that I checked out based on other people's recs. Yay, Festivids!
Moonlight (Sleepy Hollow): A wonderful atmospheric evocation of the show, visually striking without being especially spoilery, so this is a good one to check out if you've been thinking about watching the show.
The Way Things Are (Sleepy Hollow): Jenny Mills, people. JENNY MILLS. This vid captures the combination of vulnerability and badassery that's a huge part of Jenny's appeal for me.
Sleep No More (Strange Days): I haven't seen the movie in years, but this vid pulled me right back in. Short version: Shiny dystopia in which Angela Bassett kicks ass and Ralph Fiennes tries to keep up. Or, uh, that's my version. And also this vid's.
Such Great Heights (Wall-E): Utterly charming; the song's combination of wistful vocals over blippy inorganic music suits the movie beautifully.
Song 9 (Wonderfalls): To the surprise of no one, I am a sucker for Wonderfalls vids in general, and this one is delightful. I love the mellow bounce of the music, the accumulation of the muses, and Jaye trying to navigate her increasingly wacky life.
All We Got (The Great Gatsby): "A little party never killed nobody." Ahahahahaha. Great song choice or greatest song choice? Brilliant editing and pacing to boot.
9 to 5 (Lego Star Wars): THIS VID IS THE CUTEST. I cannot believe I just spent two and a half minutes cooing over Lego storm troopers, but I DID.
No Church in the Wild (The Tudors): I haven't seen the show, but I know enough about the relevant history for this vid to make powerful, fascinating sense. I would not have pegged this song as working for this kind of historical drama, but clearly that was a failure of imagination on my part, because wow, it really works. And the juxtapositions of clips are just so smart.
