Oasis - Falling Down (Dir. WIZ)
Nice! A keen and layered observation on class with EXCELLENT storytelling... all this for a five minute rock track? Who else but WIZ :)
this is absolutely another level...
Film Council/ national lottery/ dragons den... anyone... please give this guy money to make a feature with.
that really was amazing!
settle down now, Shatner.
sorry, I'm just tired of my country making shit films when we have obvious filmmaking talent like this knocking around.
trying to warm up to using emoticons but I'm having some difficulties. Instead, I'll just say: right on, man.
Is this some sort of british in joke?
Not really an in joke, just some excellent UK film making.
hmm...
C'mon then Kansas... spit it out. I wanna hear this!
(kans: say it doesn't work because the song sucks, because the edit could be better, something like that - anything, or they'll tear the flesh from your limbs...)
kanye liked it - and also had this to say.
What would a Kanye/WIZ video look like? Would it be awesome like Dizzee/WIZ or would it be awkward like Kanye/De Thurah? Could go either way but at least it'd be better than the time he got obsessed with Bill Plimpton. also, wtf kanye?
really enjoyed that (both times). excellent performance from the girl, beautiful photography. i didn't even mind tweedle dum and tweedle dee popping up - worked quite well considering it could so easily have sucked balls. best oasis vid so far says i (and sha-zam! says martin louis the king jr.). monkeys!! you put them in suits and and shave their palms and they still look like the missing link.
otc - i think the point is that if wiz was given the opportunity to work with kanye he would AIM HIGH and we don't see enough of that these days as there isn't the budget (blah blah) but more importantly there isn't much opportunity.
if he wanted to make a film in the uk it would have to be a derivative comedy horror film as that's the only thing anyones with cash is willing to pony up for in the eye of a recession and that's never going to be wiz's cup of tea.
does anyone have a complete filmography for wiz? i'd love to dig up some of his back catalogue and i'm currently obsessing about some of the detail is a video he did for dj rap way back when... never has a pomegranate looked quite so suggestive.
mvdb is probably the only one of the internet, well except for this. If WIZ wants to do a feature he should just go ahead and do it now while he's on top of the game. Fuck finding the perfect funding deal, just make something. Thraves should give it another shot as well.
There's some stuff here.
Credit list on the website Mr Hassay... not sure exactly how complete it is but we are only a phone call away!
nice short, nice track, this is filmmaking proper. at the end, are we talking extras? or footage digitally altered in post?
