Do You Want The Truth or Something Beautiful?

This video is perfect.
Brilliantly acted.
So simple, but incredibly effective.



Edit: (24th January 2010)
I have just re-watched this for the first time in a couple of weeks.
There are a few shots where she actually looks directly at the camera, and this in my opinion blows the whole video wide open. There is a narrative to the video, and the camerawork is scripted in a way that we are just onlookers, but the fact that she looks at us suggests she knows we are there, and knows that we know exactly what she does, despite the 'audience' thinking differently.
Another really intriguing layer to an already fascinating video.
