Michel Gondry’s great new promo

It’s all about the idea. And Michel Gondry proves that with a simple video concept for Open Your Heart by Mia Doi Todd.

Flairs – Truckers Delight

I’m not really sure what to say about this, other than watch it at your own risk. This may offend and it’s safe to say that it’s NSFW.

Spike Jonze: We Were Once a Fairytale
