I haven't seen this movie yet, despite my friend assuring me I will love it, and I'm sure I will, but OMG THIS VID. It gave me shivers. So good, so intense.

Oh, festividder. *HEARTS* This is beautiful.

I'm kind of overwhelmed by your song choice, because of course that is the perfect song, with all the connotations it carries. And I love how much this vid, like the song, is about the beauty of freedom, about the vision of liberty that carries you through, that makes the sacrifices worth it, that gives you strength. Ceasar and his people shall fucking overcome, yes.

And I adore how you've dared to dwell in the footage, letting the long clips take their time. You use the sequence of Ceasar swinging through the trees so beautifully - the burst of sunlight on "it's a new day" took my breath away. And all the shots of Ceasar's eyes. And Ceasar caged while the butterflies know how he feels. It's all so gorgeous and moving.

Thank you so much for making me such a lovely and powerful gift! <333333

I'm SO HAPPY, that you like this video! I was a little nervous about what your reaction will be, because of the unusual song choice and because I could finish this in the last minute, so I could ask my daughter's opinion only about it, she was my last minute emergency beta.:)

YOur warm feedback really means a lot for me, you cannot even imagine how much I was grinning while I've read it for the first time. It was really heart-warming, you know. Thank you!:)

The easy, powerful swing of Simone's voice is matched by the easy, powerful swing of the apes' travel. Thunk.

Oh, wow. This packs a punch.

Fantastic song choice and editing; the combination tells the story so well, with so much more emotion than I would've expected. Really well done!
