Massive Attack – Live With Me
Director: Jonathan Glazer Producer: Nick Morris Cinematographer: Marcel Zyskind Editor: Paul Watts Notes: The town cryer that appears at the start of the video and whose image appears on the front cover of the single release is the the town cryer of Gloucester, UK Alan Mynott, who also happens to hold the world record for the loudest human voice. The actress who played the tragic and pitiful role of the binge drinking woman in the video was played by Scottish actress Kirsty Shepheard. For most of the video she was not putting on an act as she was actually drunk. You can read her profile at the IMDB. The video closes with her passing out on a bench near her home and dreaming of rolling down an unending golden staircase. As the location didnt have the look required for the staircase sequence, it was decided to replace the original with a golden CG staircase. In post production (undertaken by a company known as MPC), the sequence was camera tracked, and once the director had approved the look, the 15 shots were rendered. The falling woman was then restored from the original footage into the CG environment. The opening shot was particularly challenging involving seamlessly joining 3 separate takes into one smooth 10-second shot. Her shadow and reflections were added throughout the sequence to further place her in the scene. The promo video recieved its worldwide premiere on the uks Channel 4 on 3rd February 2006 at 11.30pm GMT.

zajebisty kawałek jeden z najlepszych Massive Attack.
Not your great hero jesus can cure the inner core pain everyones born with
No- the actress from “Bourne ” is Franka Potente. The one in the video is a different one
This is so me…..in fact, she’s perfect. How do i get a date with her down the brewery???
this is so sad to see the empty lifes thats young people are living,lonely alcholics..so sad if only the knew Jesus has come to set them free
terry calier is awesome.
KYRIAKOS
How did they capture the footage of the FOX when she is lying on the bench?
So I have read the side bar but you speak as if the woman in the vid is another person, Sarcasm? That’s you right? With the “Pitiful” role as as the town drunk?
Thanks,
*Jason
alchohol posioning if that was me
This Bitch can drink me under the table.
bo polaki lubią pić wóde z gwinta ju noł?:D
just smoke herb.
not impressed by the massive attack sound at the moment, this will be third album with the same vibe, I thought they would have put all them dub step dickheads out of biz…and they probably can do. LPs 1, 2, 3, are so different and then they fell in a pot hole…
@jepharmstrong If it was stupid and attention seeking than I surely got the attention of someone appropriate
So glad the good British music is back instead of all this JLS shit . Gorillaz and massive attack have both released new albums and I’ll be buying both
Hot damn, this makes me want to sauce up!!!
I’ve seen so many people throw there life away in a bottle of booze,,they anit nothing but little devils in the bottom of the bottle of booze and they will take you down with the rest,,,,,quit drinking while you still have a life.
that’s a borderline statement, and I don’t mean between funny and racist. I mean stupid and attention seeking.
After a drunken night out, when you are feeling a little bit sick and all you want to do is lay down but when you get into bed you get that spinning, rolling feeling and you just have to ride it out till you get to sleep.
what you mean? stumbling down the stairs = getting down down down … and then seeing the stars? i didn’t get it yet..
Why is it that in a video about binge drinking, so many Polish people are commenting? ;>
if u’re thinking of Franka Potente, then no.
Does anyone know if this is the actress from the “Bourne” movies?
I love the end. such a perfect metaphor.
hahahaha alek ^^ musze Ci przyznać rację ;D
