The Lady Is Dead, directed by Roy Raz of Pag Films, is a haunting look at sexuality and stereotypes. Set to the The Irrepressibles’ “In This Shirt,” this compulsively watchable five-minute short falls somewhere between the hot twink who got naked and dreamed of being a pterodactyl and Vampire Weekend’s “Giving Up The Gun” (remember that video with Joe Jonas and Jake Gyllenhaal?) and some of the smokier moments from Lost. This, folks, is beautiful.
And since there are more than a few nekkified moments, the short is NSFW.
oddly exquisite
I do not see how you can even dare compare this video with the other two pieces that you referenced…The Lady is Dead is so much more enriching, deep and beautifully worked than the others, especially for being low budget and not backed by a record label, it is exquisite.
