It is a rare thing indeed for the VV to post any music videos, but when she heard this beautiful song by Keaton Henson and saw the film that accompanies it which is so evocative of the mid-west American Victorian era, she decided she had to share it. The film stars Sophie Thompson.
Is this a full feature film or just a film put together for the music video?
ReplyDeleteI would say it's just for the video. But I think it's wonderful acting and a lovely song - and something very 'Deadwood' about it for me. One of the VV's 'Fancies'.
ReplyDeleteI wondered if it was a movie too. I certainly admire her acting ability. To keep up that level of emotion at close range for so long and be so convincing.
ReplyDeleteShe reminds me of a character in my WIP - an English woman in the American West - even down to her eye colour! It was eerie.
Oh - that must have been eerie. She is the sister of the actor Emma Thompson.
ReplyDeleteThat's all about art what a post:
ReplyDeleteI fell in her tears
Sliding on her cheek,
I felt the earth
where she planted her knees.
I loved her and the song VV!
Waoooou!
Thank you so much!

A good start for the week!
Bravo!!!

Thank you Francois. I thought it was an incredible performance - music and acting. A 'still' sad moment. Sometimes we expect so much 'action' in life. The stiller moments can be the most profound.
