Ahhhh, that was lovely! You really show off the cinematography, and I loved the repeated image of the eagle throughout.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much! The movie was such a joy to work with and I'm so happy you enjoyed this!

[dariaw]

that was terrific!

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you very much!

[trelkez]

Really pretty. I love how you weave in Marcus' family history, setting the stage with the "glorious" parts earlier on and then going back and back to the eagle.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed it :)

[emma_in_dream]

holy shit i LOVE the books and i love the movie and this is basically everything i could ever want out of a vid of it. what a beautiful job.

the cutting is beautiful and the parallels between the eagles and the lyrics and everything just ???? how did you even well done. i am especially fond of the first verse but basically everything. you did such a good job of showing the journey in such a short time but all of it comes through. i am so pleased seriously well done!

seriously the repetition of the eagles showing up was just so beautiful. you did it perfectly.

[lilly_the_kid]

Wow, thank you so much for your lovely comment! When I stumbled across the song I just had to make this and it was so much fun to do. I'm really happy you enjoyed this and that I could do the movie justice! So, yes, seriously, thank you!! :)

[cyphomandra]

Awww. This was great!!

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much, I'm so happy you enjoyed it!

[walkthegale]

This is beautiful! I love how well you've made the song work, and all the awesome cuts, especially bringing the eagle back over and over. Gorgeous vid!

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you very much! Before I made this vid I never fully realized just how often Marcus reaches for/clings to the eagle. I'm so happy you like the vid!

[anoel]

Aww so cute with the end! I really like how clearly you told the story and showed their bond and swept me up into the vid.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy I could sweep you up in this vid :) And I also love the end. I think it leaves the movie with such a hopeful happy tone.

[semielliptical]

Oh wow, what a beautiful vid. Great song choice and amazing editing. I loved the way you use the eagle(s) throughout.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much! While vidding this I realized there were a lot of eagles in the movie :) and it was fun to work with that. Glad you liked it!

[ghost_lingering]

This is excellent!

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much!

[franzeska]

I like what you did with Marcus' daddy issues.

[lilly_the_kid]

He lets them go in the end!! :D Like the eagle!!! :D

[out_there]

This is gorgeous. I love how stunning the scenery and cinematography looks here, and its a perfect song choice, given the movie's focus on glory and symbols outliving an individual soldiers death.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much! The song and the movie were so much fun to work with and I'm really happy you enjoyed this!

[sweetestdrain]

I love this vid -- really nice editing and structure which shows us not only our heroes but the weight they bear from generations before.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you very much! "not only our heroes but the weight they bear from generations before" I'm so happy this came across and I'm happy you enjoyed the vid!

[elipie]

This is really good! I love your cutting style and can't wait to see who made this! :) The intercutting was really effective and the song choice worked so well.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you very much! I loved making this and I'm so happy you enjoyed it! (It was me!! :) )

[swizzlespoon]

Really loved the pace of this and the editing and the use of the eagle throughout. I haven't seen the movie (or read the book), but have heard a bit about it. Still felt a story was clearly told here.

[lilly_the_kid]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed the vid even without knowing the movie :)
