DIRECTOR'S NOTE:
This video utilizes many beautiful films from the early days of the medium to create a surreal, collage effect when mixed with our present day footage (shot to match & interact with the vintage footage).
These films were carefully chosen both for their beauty, strangeness, and because their public domain status allowed for this kind of re-purposing. This video hopes to honor the past by finding ways to make these incredible films part of the present. Below, you'll find a complete list of every film used in the video.

Marissa Nadler – Was It A Dream Lyrics#marissanadlerKeep thinking it was a dreamThat I hit you when you’re downI keep changing everythingFrom the river to the townCHORUS:Was it a dream?Or something sinister?Was it a dreamOr something sinister?I got a better halfIt’s sad, I know you knowI got a better halfIt’s sad, I know you knowKeep thinking it was a dreamThat you’re never gonna lack of itThe time we spentIn a box in my own townCHORUS:Was it a dream?Or something sinister?Was it a dreamOr something sinister?I got a better halfIt’s sad, I know you knowI got a better halfIt’s sad, I know you knowIt’s true that I lost youStumbling from room to roomHoping I wake up somehow next to youIt’s true that I lost you,Stumbling from room to roomHoping I wake up somehow next to youEyes on the mirror looking throughIt’s the same world, but everything is blue.It’s the same world, but everything is blue.It’s the same world, but everything is blue.[Lyrics to Was It A Dream by Marissa Nadler]10 years ago

Anyone have their own interpretation of what this song is about?something esoteric? mixing up your fantasies, dreams, memories, regrets and mixing them all together and wondering what real life is? that maybe all of this is a dream11 years ago
