Absolutely lovely vid. Makes a change from seeing Ten/Rose! Casanova/Henriette are just perfect and I love that song too (after hearing it in a cinema advert and going home to find out what it was *g*) so good choice I say! Love how all the dancing fits in perfectly with the music but my favourite bit was the positioning of 'You will forget me' along with miserable Casanova and the dancing.

Great job!

(sorry I've rambled on a bit haven't I?!)

Glee! Thank you so much. That song and that movie were MEANT to be together, it turned out. *g*

Feel free to ramble any time in my general direction.

The vid is absolutely lovely and makes me want to see Casanova even more [and I have no idea when or even if it will be shown here *sigh* but anything with DT must been seen heard or watch :)]

it's charming! it feels sweeping and epic and cheerful, a combination of that piano and her voice and those panning camera movements—i especially loved they'll name a city after us—and, oh, very sad in the middle there, but on the whole, sweeping and terribly romantic. plus regina spektor! who, i think, can do no wrong. great timing and scene-to-song matching.

songvid protocol has usually been to include credits at either the beginning or the end, with author name and contact/homepage information and video/music source identification (and by "usually" i mean "if you wanted viewers to ever be able to find you again"); has that changed now that all that information is available adjacent to the video if you're watching from the youtube site?

*I* was too impatient to figure out how to make a title card! Which will go at the end under "our noses have begun to rust" as soon as I learn how.

This video's a living document! and shall be continually edited as I learn about Premiere.

Thank you SO much for the comments; I totally can't take credit for how well that song goes with that movie, except to say that visualizing how well Casanova would look on "Us" is what made me want to learn to vid in the first place. *g*

I am so GLAD it feels charming and sweeping and epic and romantic, as that was my very own goal! It's not breaking any ground or changing any lives, artistically, but it's so snuggly! And, with screaming! And dancing!

Um. Thank you thank you thank you.

You just became my favourite person of the week, because I've been craving Casanova in the worst way the whole week, and, at the same time, I've been grooving to Regina Spektor on my iTunes. I hadn't realized that anyone could combine the two, but you did, and it was fabulous. Great vid.

Dude, it's like Casanova and "Us" were born to be together. I just did the lifting. Regina and Rusty are the real culprits.

Thank you thank you for the comment! I am so glad you like. Feel free to watch it on repeat until it burns itself, frame by frame, into your brain! (And I won't have to be alone having the thing play out behind my eyelids 24/7 -- the hazards of vidding, apparently...)

The embedded YouTube crashed my browser waah, and YSI tells me I have to log in. Can you give me a link to the actual YouTube site where I can see it?

Ok, I'm not familiar with the source material, so I don't quite get the story. But ooh pretty, especially the dancing.
