Now i have seen some pretty interesting films in my day, but this one definitely takes the cake. The music video for The Talking Head's song "Once in a Lifetime" is the weirdest thing i have ever seen; and for that reason it is one of my favorites. I'm not sure how people come up with this stuff, which i suppose makes it a unique form of art. I could never make something this random if i tried for months and months. Music video is the only genre of film where this unbridled creativity can shine at its brightest. Although i feel like modern day music videos are not taking advantage of this fact. They are mainly making like short films and playing their song in the background; personally i prefer the classics like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1wg1DNHbNU

ReplyDeleteWas that song supposed to make sense? Anyways, that was pretty funny; I liked it. Except for the gross part where he was all sweaty.
