Video duration: 274 seconds

The video for the opening track from Tindersticks' "Can Our Love..." album of 2001. Not included on their "Bareback" DVD, as rather than their usual director Martin Wallace, this time they went to the Cosgrove Hall animation studios, and the result is as hauntingly beautiful as the song itself.

Posted by: wordsofexpectation

Video duration: 296 seconds

A 1925 short starring Mutt and Jeff, with colour and music added in 1973. With its comical scenes of attempted insurance fraud, elephant disfigurement, and a paranoid Negro washerwoman suspecting her own laundry of Ku Klux involvement, "Accidents Won't Happen" is as timely today as it was in 1925 and 1973 put together.
