Oh, wow. Just had to comment again! The moment at, I think 2:09 - when you hard-cut in that scene of W in his bed (yes, fellow h'c'er, thank you very much, now what were we saying) to that chilling piano chord - it's just a - a gut-punch, it's so powerful. You take these two powerful moments and make thems tronger, make them speak, really. And in the end, that glance, 3:07 I think, W glances down, as thouhg he's *realizing* something, and H looks back, and you put that to "It will be worth it..."!!!!

*shiver*

Wow.

And btw, thanks for introducing me to that amazing, amazing song. I must check out mroe Depeche Mode.

(I was the one who emailed you a few days ago for the pw to that I Spy vid, btw. In case you wondered where that 'again' came from.)

Sorry for not commenting sooner - Drayce pimped it supplied a linky yesterday in the wee small hours, and I came and saw and dribbled and then had to go and earn an honest crust... but anyway, it's gorgeous - I totally forgot I was watching a fanvid and was vaguely put out when it ended waaay too soon. Wonderful, ta muchly.

We can but dream.

Even if Guy and Jude undoubtedly know Pros...

Yay! I'm glad you're enjoying it. It was, a few minor frustrations aside, a very pleasurable vid to work on. I cannot get enough of Holmes and Watson.

I'm glad I'm not alone in liking that hard cut to Watson. Though his shirtlessness certainly doesn't hurt, there's more to the moment than that. It's his complete vulnerability, and the way Holmes is there to look after him. (Yep, I'm a sucker for h/c.)

I'm also pleased to introduce you to the song. Depeche Mode have been a favourite of mine since high school, which is a ridiculously long time ago now. *g*

I did recognize your name. Good to see you here.

[przed.livejournal.com]

Yay for you liking it! It's a good thing that it left you wanting more, no?

This is an amazing vid. I'm not going to find the words to do it justice, but the way that you show the relationship between them is incredible. Going to have to watch this a few more times.

[przed.livejournal.com]

Their relationship is amazing. I just hope I did it justice.

Great movie and great vid, nicely edited, well done.

Oh, it's amazing that you tell me the new movie has a bit of h/c in it! I must watch it... I was planning to at some point, but this moves it to the top of my to-do list! I never find enough h/c in anything (and you'd think the producers must have caught on by now, wouldn't you?
Thanks!

[przed.livejournal.com]

There is some lovely h/c in the film. I think you'll be pleased.

Guy certainly does. The blokes in the dodgy Capri in Snatch kept cracking me up.

Thanks! It was an inspiring movie to work with. *sigh*

[dragonmuse.livejournal.com]

Nothing really to say except brilliant vid, and I have downloaded it (via. Megaupload) to watch again and again on my iPod, so thank you! :D

[przed.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Glad to hear you're enjoying it. (I'm accumulating quite the collection of Holmes vids on my iPod myself. *g*)

OK, so jsut watched the movie.

Your video totally spoiled it for me! I prefer it to the movie, very, very much. It's just - it's passionate, it *burns*. (In fairness, I'm half-English, and the movie's Britfail partially ruined it for me!) I truly loved it. Vid: Rewatch. Movie? ...not so much!

[przed.livejournal.com]

Um, I'm sorry?

I have to admit to skewing the footage I used in a very definite way. The angsty stuff is in there, but there's also the goofy stuff, and the dodgy plot.

That said, I have to say I love the movie far more than is healthy. Even including RDJ's dodgy accent. (One of our local rep cinemas is showing it tomorrow, and I'm totally planning on seeing it, double billed with Young Victoria. Victorian England FTW!
