VID REC: The Sentinel - Mr. Sandman

Vidder: Sally
Musical artist: Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Vidder on LJ: unknown
Vidder's website: Sally's Sentinel Songvids
Why this vid kicks ass: The Sentinel fandom can get a bit sentimental at times - who can blame us? Two good-looking men who share an apartment AND an "extra-sensitive touchy-feely" friendship. It's destined to create a certain spirit of schmoopyness from time to time. This video captures the very best of that impulse in the fandom. It beautifully sets up the notion of Jim dreaming about Blair - and then mirrors the impulse from Blair's POV in the second half of the video. You'll see lovely shots of them smiling and looking all dreamy. Serious eye-candy that won't disappoint. And when it's done, you'll find yourself going "OMG, that's the sweetest thing I've ever seen" - and it will be. Promise.

I'm so glad you recc'd this one - it's one of my favorite Sentinel vids. Not only for the eyecandy factor, but in the sense that for a cute and silly vid, it's very very well done. There's a really neat symetry to it, and some great uses of various elements of the show. Really cool vid.
