OH MY GOD THIS. THIS IS THE DEADWOOD VID OF MY HEART. GOD, JANE!!! And Jane and all the filth and mess and tragedy and also all the humor and warmth and love and just. GLIMPSES OF ALL THE OTHER LADIES AS WELL and Jane's path among them and GAH. SO SO GOOD, OH MY GOD. And the song is PERFECT.

Oh, man! I think I might have forgotten somewhere along the way just HOW GOOD Jane is in Deadwood, and indeed Joanie, and OH the two of them together <33333333. Love this, it's absolutely stunning:)

Oh, JANE. She breaks my heart. This is just marvelous.

[apatheia_jane]

wow. also, wow, clearly I need to get around to watching 3rd season. but wow this vid - Jane, how she sees Joanie, how she sees herself, the despair and nastiness in the town, and the good in some people that shines through anyway. Absolutely loved this vid, so perfect encapsulating why I loved this show.

This is my favourite vid out of all the ones I've watched this year, by far. It's gorgeous, and everything you've done with the song and the characters . . . JOANIE! JANE! And Charlie and Fields and EVERYBODY. Wow. I love that you ended with the buffalo robe.

Oh my god, vidder! How did this get created? I'm blown away. Thank you times a million for such an amazing gift. You pulled out amazing moments between Joanie and Jane that I hardly knew existed and made them absolutely sing, then wove them together with the ensemble and backdrop of Deadwood. This is so exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you again!

Oooh. I really feel like watching this show now.

[franzeska]

Her face is always so expressive! Very moving!

You stole my comment. LOL

:)

Jane and Joanie are my favorite relationship in the show and I love how you've showcased them here, anon vidder.

[chagrined]

Ooooh. I watched the other Deadwood vid first, and that made me interested me a bit in this Jane character, but this vid! Queer cowboy ladies?? I'm even more intrigued now, how great.

[eruthros]

I've never seen this show at all, but wow this vid makes me want to! I love how tightly you've woven the narrative so I can see it even without the context of the show.

God. You just made me cry. They both break my heart: so brave in amidst all that dust and worn-down human-ness.
