Winnipeg Lists The Rose Among Best Videos Of 2011



An article was brought to our attention from long-time digital friend Cameron posted on website called Paul's Winnipeg. Paul compiled his list of the best music videos of last year and we made a good impression:

Sarah Slean - The Rose 
I'm going to be honest with you: very few music videos, by any artist and in any genre, have ever moved me as much as "The Rose" did. This is what I was talking about when I mentioned the 'intangible marriage of music and visuals' in my introduction to Part 1. 
Sarah Slean's absolutely gorgeous song and its incredible lyrics meld cohesively with a concept that steadily becomes more brilliant the more you think about it to create something that you can't really describe in words, only in emotions. Emotions that aren't forced or melodramatic, just emotions that exist within us all; our hopes and our fears, our dreams and our desires, and our underlying wonder at the nature of the universe.

Dead Hooker In A Trunk Goody Warned For His Language 

Twitter-er @vee_eff posted these two photos on her account of the Region 2 DVD release of Dead Hooker In A Trunk. Apparently the UK ratings board is cool with an exposed, forked penis and suggested sex but took exception to Goody's monologue in the middle of the film. This is a delight.
