Thanks to Lars and the Real Girl I’ve rediscovered this classic:
Oh the film isn’t bad either! I probably would have loved it only I watched it the same day I finally saw Once for the first time and fell head over heels in love with it, and everything else just seems mundane in comparison.
The Beeb’s news website has a list of famous videos on t’interweb including Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up, Ok Go’s treadmill video, Beyonce falling on her face (OUCH!) and this:
“In 2005, a film-making body in New York issued a challenge to America’s assistant film editors – take an existing movie trailer, and re-edit it in an entirely different genre. The winner was 25-year-old Robert Ryang, who took Stanley Kubrick’s psychological horror The Shining and turned it into a breezy romantic comedy, set to the tune of Peter Gabriel’s Solsbury Hill. So so good. I love how it shows how editing and music can completely change the tone of a film.”
They also list this wondeful piece of sunshine from the legend that is Will Ferrell
