Fanvid recs!

Nearly all from festivids, and I haven't yet finished watching everything I want to see yet.



The Bletchley Circle

Turn to stone: barkley

This is perfect for the extraordinary women of this show.

Charlie's Angels movies

Circus of Heartbreakin' Divas: dragonchic

Such a fun vid.

Community

Folding Chair: sisabet
Wonderful Annie-centric vid (contains s2 spoilers)

Annie Edison, aka Little Annie Adderall, aka Caroline Decker from Corpus Christi, Texas (but only that one time) grows up. Hard.

Good Will Hunting

Diamonds: rhoboat

Really, really good. Loved the way it told Will’s story and as well as conveying a strong sense of who the other characters were, a sense of place too.

Grosse Point Blank

Right Moves: greensilver (violence)

So great. (I need to see this film again!)

Hero

A Combat in Tribute to You: rhoboat

Fittingly, given the source material, this uses colour and contrasts action or motion with stillness marvellously well.

The Lake House

Break Me: dualbunny

I was curious about how a Lake House vid would work, I didn't expect it to be so emotional.

The Mission Impossible (film) series

Sabotage: ohvienna

Great action vid - I love how it brought together what I tend to struggle to think of as an unified whole.

Moon

Another code against the gone: cherry

Very effective and creepifying vidlet (I’d fall on the side of saying spoilery for the film).

The Princess Bride

Killer Dillers: crowie

I love the use of syncopation and the feel of the song for this reminder of how wonderful a film it is.

RED

Killer Queen: cosmic-llin

Witty and appropriate celebration of Victoria (and I say this as someone who has almost got tired of Victoria footage in RED vids.)

Sense and Sensibility (1995)

Ever-fixed mark: deelaundry

This vid is a delight, focusing on the Dashwood sisters and their relationships (chiefly with each other).

True Grit

Devil’s Tattoo: Lilly the Kid (strong violence)

The use of flashback is particularly brilliant - focusing on the violence, death and cost involved in what Mattie went through.

Whale Rider

Sons and Daughters: frayadjacent

This is a really affecting (ie it made me tear up) vid about community and family.

Witness

You were a kindness: fan_eunice (nudity)

The way the song, tone and lyrics, fit the stories of these characters works wonderfully well.
