Why this vid kicks ass:

This falls under the category "I can't believe it hasn't been recced yet". There may not be that many MFU vidders, but what there is is 'cherce', and the videos coming from the bluemeany shop are always among the best. This one though, is in a league of its own. MFU is an old show, but its stars are still working and the passage of time is etched on their faces. Bigbluemeany uses that fact brilliantly; with just a few seconds of modern footage added to the fantastic clips from MFU, she builds a story of love and regret; of an intense and complex relationship whose echoes linger for a lifetime. The mood of this piece will stay with you long after you've watched it.
