Sixteen Saltines Music Video
Gotta say, it's a bit weird. A cross between Lord of the Flies and Mad Max.

Re: Sixteen Saltines Music Video
Lord of the Flies is exactly what I thought of, too, though this has nothing on William Golding.
The other thing that occurred to me is that between this and the way the un-showable Black Belles video was described, it seems Jack has developed a thing for restraint and immolation.

Re: Sixteen Saltines Music Video
More by the same director:

I only one I watched was the Spiritualized video (most recent) and it's pretty gritty as well, seems to be his style or at least his current style of videomaking/storytelling.

The blonde girl at 1:40 looks a bit like the porcelain skinned lady who works in the store.

Re: Sixteen Saltines Music Video
I don't know, it seems more like we are seeing a new facet of his personality here. I agree about the Black Belles and the overall mood being similar, but this feels personal on a new level. He's never really done anything quite like this before.Toledo wrote:what the heck... only jack
I absolutely love it.
EDIT: Also, as far as interpreting it goes, I have a feeling that blue child represents Jack/his childhood/his past/something to that effect.

Horrible. Bordering on embarrassing. He's capable of much better. MUCH better.
