Oh, yay, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

And yes, I love this cover, a lot. The original is grand, but the Zevon cover seemed to me to have that small-town Alaska feel, you know?

Yeah, it really does have the right feel for the setting.

Also, I actually went and bought the song thanks to this vid.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I'm awfully fond of this movie and these characters, so it was fun to be able to showcase them.

OH MY HEART, MY HEART. This was so lovely and kind and wonderful and joyful and maybe a touch bittersweet.

This is just gorgeous! I got a little bit distracted the first time through just at the thought of Russell Crowe and Mary McCormack together: O.O Hee!

But yeah, really really lovely. <3

I'm so sorry! I'm having trouble with ftp to my website (terrible timing, I know) so for now, the vid is available for download from my journal. I apologize for the complication -- I'm trying to fix it now -- and thank you for wanting to d/l the vid!

Mystery, Alaska was one of those movies that made me laugh and ask where the hell it was taking place as a young Alaskan kid, so I definitely wanted to see it.

(Also, having browsed your website trying to find it, I'd like to note that I really, really love your Veronica Mars stories and the Saved! vid.)
kass: Veronica Mars (veronica)

Oh, thank you so much! Man, I still miss Veronica Mars; she is awesome.

And I had so much fun making that Saved! vid -- that was my first Festivid experience, and it was a total joy. \o/

Or, hey, allergic-reaction means that I thiiiiiiink i was thinking of something else. But regardless, this vid is *awesome* thus far.
