Wow. I love to see people vidding movies of the kind I watch (new TV shows, old movies is the way I swing), especially since my computer isn't displaying colour very well right now. This vid is wonderful! The way you keep up the movement -- it fit both the source and the song well, with the effect that the two never jarred at all. It certainly did have a more upbeat take on Gilda than the original movie did. When I watched the movie I expected Gilda to be a real bad girl, but she seemed such a sad figure, a mischievous wench, caught in the company of two darkly obsessive men and desperately trying to assert some control. In this vid I can believe that she always retains some.
Two of my favourite moments are around 2:10 where she collapses in front of him and the portrait looks on, and at 2:26, where the thrown guitar matches the impaling sword stick.
