I absolutely adore her work. Big, big fan. My favorite vid would be last boy standing, though.

visually it’s artsy-fartsy.
thematically it’s a guy caressing a gun. someone mistook boyishness with “uuh, bad guy!”-blah.

The subject, music, production values, model and props combined to make a video of surpassing irrelevance. Obviously an attempt by the ‘arteeest’ to illustrate some perceived overgeneralized teenage angst about this or that, it misses me by a mile. OK looking boy,yeah, I’d do him.

Freddo e’ il guardarsi allo specchio accarezzandosi con la morte,questo desiderio di amarla fa’ riflettere, eppure lo squardo eccitante e perverso desta tutta la sua passionalita’nel conviverci.

Kids with guns give me the creeps. As a creature of the 70s, my motto is, ‘Make Love Not War.’
Get a bunch of boys marching in military uniform with weapons of death and the crowd will cheer… The same boys branishing life giving weapons would be spat on and arrested… Go figure.
