It’s been awhile since I’ve put a new AMV and this time I thought this latest entry is quite appropriate and one which fellow writer Lisa Marie would really enjoy.
Last week Natalie Portman won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her powerful performance in Black Swan. This latest AMV is one which combines two things that Lisa Marie will appreciate most: ballet and French music. The video takes scenes from the magical girl anime series, Princess Tutu, which eerily looks like certain scenes from Aronofsky’s film. The music the creator, Chiikaboom, used is “Le Bien Qui Fait Mal” from the rock musical Mozart L’Opera Rock.
I haven’t really seen much of Princess Tutu and I definitely haven’t listened to much French music outside of classical. I will admit that this AMV has a certain dark appeal to it and the combination of scenes lifted from the anime and the music used makes it quite badass.
Creator: Chiikaboom
Anime: Princess Tutu
Music: “Le Bien Qui Fait Mal” from Mozart L’Opera Rock
I have no idea what the song was about but it did sound cool. And who said a duck can’t do ballet.
This anime is on my “to watch” shelves, but it’s still a long ways away from me being able to watch it, but I’ve heard from people that it is kind of dark. At the very least, I don’t believe it has a happy ending. I’ll have to kick my DVD watching into high gear soon and get cracking on my backlog.
