American Beauty: "Freedom"

[nephozo]

does this movie not reflect the life, thoughts and ideas of most middle aged men?

lets not forget many a woman out there to

maybe that is the reason for witch this movie is either loved or hated.

[TouchePipi]

ça c'est un film divertissent et qui propose une vision de la vie tres positive, l'anti drame par exellence. Il évoque la simpilcité, le naturel dans nos vie modernes, et le fait qu'a tout moment on peut prendre ou reprendre sa vie, rien n'est jamais finis. C'est un film authentique qui nous fait réfléchir et qui invite a la remise en question, la jeunesse n'est pas le nombre d'année et la maturité se confond parfois avec elle... Un film que je vous conseille vivement. La vie ne doit pas finir.

[MrFreeman420]

This song has such a nice groove to it

[FreedomBeats]

Nice song!

[DEEDUBB1979]

The music is Brazilian Jazz.  This is beautiful music.

[jamest3535]

[mayamgk0220]

Aint that the Fkn TRUTH!

[emma473]

A GREAT MOVIE...based on the mundane, "sound and fury of life....signifying nothing"...one of my favorite movies of all time.

[ErsatzWino]

Definitely not spam. Nice vid.

[jkprojects]

wow that was actually really good. there were some part where you let the scene stay on too long. but overall i can see it was well thought out. my fav part is: 3:19 - 3:21 where you made her sing the song (:

[ErsatzWino]

Ha! Somebody caught that lol. I didn't know if anyone would notice, but it made me chuckle so I did it anyway. This was my first fanvid and when I watch it these days, yeah, I see some things I lingered on too long and some different cuts I would've made. One day I'd like to re-cut it but I don't have the patience. Thanks for the comment, though--I loved your AB vid too!

[jkprojects]

glad you like it (: hey have you done more videos somewhere else ?

[ErsatzWino]

I have not...I have several more ideas for fanvids from other movies and TV shows, but haven't gotten around to any of them because they (especially the TV ones, with SO much footage to go through) are so time consuming. I wanna finally do some more, though...hoping to have a Body Heat video and a Carmela Soprano tribute up by summer's end.

[shoxsy]

this song is so cheesey.

[frankandruby]

that is "agua de beber" by astrud gilberto

[666dam63]

This is such a timeless classic about true middle age. A little over the top YES! Nevertheless, humourous and it truly personnifies a dark comedy. If you were born before 65 or so you would understand.

[ErsatzWino]

I'm only 25...I like think I understand, haha.

[NastyDHL]

Yea dude I'm 20, as long as you have an open mind and are aware of the drudgingly-miserable lives of those who revolve around financial security and materialistic wealth

[jzapert]

The movie doesn't suggest that we should just some people who are "drudgingly-miserable" and look only for wealth. The work-a-day life is portrayed in the movie with a good deal of sympathy considering the film acknowledges that it is a position most everyone in this society is in, to one degree or another. The film is speaking to YOU. It's not trying to help you say, "That's not me."

[jzapert]

"Don't worry. You will someday."

[ErsatzWino]

Rock on.

[NickDiaz209]

[johnboyjwg]

Good Job! 

I enjoyed the background music with the video, as well.

[ErsatzWino]

Thank you!

[chaylon]

not dissing the music....but damn I am looking for the video of Carolin freaking out.. the video showing where she is doing up the house for sale...then does not sell and freaks..

[ErsatzWino]

I'd clip it and put it up, but once upon a time I had another account and put up lots of really fantastic movie scenes that weren't available anywhere online, and of course the account got yanked.

[miumiumymy]

i love the music

[ErsatzWino]

Thanks. Alex C does good work, I think. And I mean...it's McLachlan and Jobim. Come on lol!

[spaceyrules]
