sparklehorse - it's a wonderful life

Today's video was a happy accident. I woke up this morning and decided that whatever artist came up first on my iTunes when I hit "shuffle" would be my Friday Video. The winner was Sparklehorse. So, searching around online I found this clip that Canadian director Guy Maddin put together for "It's a Wonderful Life." Sparklehorse's music just seems to fit with certain directors. Previously, I had always gotten a David Lynch vibe from his work. But Maddin's old-timey style nicely complements his music as well.
