VID REC: The Sentinel - When You Say Nothing At All

[magician113.livejournal.com]

Vidder: pollokvids
Musical artist: Ronan Keating
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Vidder on LJ: unknown
Vidder’s Website: Pollokvids on YouTube

Why this vid kicks ass: Because it highlights our favorite strong silent type--Jim.

Even people who only know The Sentinel through fanfic know that Blair is the chatty one and Jim is not. Although he might not use words, Jim’s got other communication skills: those expressive eyes, that killer smile, and all that touching, especially with Blair. Pollokvids has picked out a nice variety of scenes, including ones not often seen (with notable exceptions like that hug in BMB). Altogether, she’s matched up clips with the lyrics to a really lovely song, famous from the “Notting Hill” movie soundtrack, but it works well as a TS theme song. ^_^

So sit back and enjoy Jim expressing himself in the ways he does best.

I know what you mean! I've just never thought of YouTube as a source for good fanvids, yet there's quite a bit of gold to be mined! I had a lot of fun finding this song and artist.

Thanks for letting me know you liked it.

Thank you - I don't recall seeing it before, and it's so nice to watch them having fun together with so many huge smiles. *beams too*

Me neither! For a while when I wandered around YT looking for TS, I either got the blooper reel or the "shirtless Sentinel", so I thought people just posted there for laughs. Then I started seeing some serious stuff. I only found this about a week ago.

I can't help but smile, too, when I watch it. So much good feeling flowing between them. ::twirls you:: Thanks for commenting!

I've not seen this one before, thanks for the rec! Great story-telling work by the vidder, they chose some wonderful clips to match the lyrics and enhance the experience.

I agree. I kept looking at some of those clips and wondering where they came from. Which meant I had to go back and watch some episodes. That makes me doubly grateful to her! Thanks for commenting.
