Beautiful people doing ordinary things in a cinematic fashion
Click to viewOk, so I'll admit it. You know those really pretentious perfume/fashion ads you see every now and then? You know the ones I'm talking about, they show up around the holiday season flaunting gorgeous models in scenarios lavishly dressed or clothing optional. I AM OBSESSED WITH THESE ADS. Ever since that Chanel No. 5 short film with Nicole Kidman (as the world's most famous woman or whatever) and that guy who played Xerces in 300 and their tale of star-crossed love played out in melodramatic fashion over a Craig Armstrong rendition of Debussy's "Claire de Lune"...I'm hooked. With such aesthetic value: the protagonists in their clichéd storylines, the oh-so-chic settings, and the amazing soundtracks (ranging from the classics to electronica), can you blame me?
So I bring you my predicament: CAN SOMEONE HELP ME CORRECTLY IDENTIFY THIS SONG?!
Short film by photographer Bell Soto called SIGHT, with an amazing cover of the French song "If You Go Away," but who sings it?
