(no subject)
Toby just left a couple of hours ago. He showed up late last night, like past midnight late. I was just about to go to bed when he crawled in through the window, still dressed in his noncasual blacks. He had 'things to tell me'... we stayed up talking till 3 a.m. Then we just dozed off after that. Naturally, we didn't wake up till noon :P
I won't talk about the things he told me. I'm just really happy for him... for always AND forever.
SO anyway, in yet another embarrassing display of my behind-the-time-ness, I heard about Sigur Ros' Vidrar vel til loftarasa video only last night. Why oh WHY is this? Really, it's a wonder my middle name isn't Has To Hear It From Others :P ...in this case, from Tobesky of all people, who thought I already knew about it... of course.
AAAAAHHH!!! It is so... dreamy! And 'controversial'!! And DREAMY!!! Like NGE's "The Last Angel"!!!
The basic storyline is this: two 12 year-olds in a soccer team --circa the 1950s-- kiss in the middle of a soccer field after a match in which one of them scores the winning goal. A real kiss! Cinematic!! Romantic!! Scandal!!! =)
Screen captures from VIDRAR VEL TIL LOFTARASA:
a boy is on a dock under a gray sky, he is playing with eyeless dolls
his father sees him, disapproves, snatches the dolls, he struggles uselessly
his father tosses the dolls, from a distance another boy witnesses this harshness...
the father takes boy to the soccer game, where boy meets boy, and something is returned, fingers touch
the dolls in a box, there's eye contact, the soccer game begins
the boy scores a winning goal...
the crowd erupts, the team piles on the ground in a group hug, and when they get up... the two boys are locked in a passionate kiss
that seemingly transports them to a more peaceful place where they kiss even more (tongue! lick! wheee!!)
but the grown-ups intrude, men tear the boys apart
and the dolls are tumbling in the air again, fade...
WHEEE!!!!! Pretty, ya =)
p.s. The whole enchilada can be found here. GO!
