SO, HI, STILL AMAZING. I want to say thinky or technical things, but basically it's just fantastically creepy and gorgeous and I just get swept away by how perfectly you've captured EVERYTHING I LOVE ABOUT THIS SHOW. The relationship is so complex and this makes me feel all of it.
You've also made this show look easy to vid, which is a FEAT. I adore it, but so much of what's awesome about it is either talking or long, significant looks. The way you've used jump cuts and quick fades turn those significant looks into such an amazing visual representation of their relationship, comparing and contrasting different parts of scenes or different looks or intercutting the more violent bits of the show with a look to show the full range of, just, everything. They just, gah, they feel so threatening to each other here and I feel weird for loving that as much as I do.
I love the progression of their relationship so much and how you've captured it. Patty is so clearly the predator in the first minute, but Ellen smiles with her drink about :59, and then the whole thing starts to transition to Ellen no longer being the object. And it all slowly flips through that gorgeous, gorgeous, metatastic overlay of the dock scene (THE DOCK OF EPIC LIFE-CHANGING SCENES) as she figures it out until she's the threatening one in the second verse.
Just...why are you so awesome? I'm so impressed by how you so skillfully pulled out the perfect visuals and linked them up to Ellen's changing awareness and walking away to so clearly show her motivations. Like, seriously, this editing is the kind that makes me feel like I ought to just pick up my toys and go home. Which would be okay, because I will make EVERY DAY my birthday and force you do do my bvidding. <33333333333 I LOVE IT, AND YOU. RAWR.
