Just the one vid, Hero, by David Crosby. I'm not planning any
others, though if the perfect song came along, I might consider it. It's
an ugly show to vid for - all those endless desk shots to hunt through.

To those who may be interested in a getting this fan music video.
It's a dark use of the song, and meant to be ironic, but the Neil fen can
take it straight, I suppose. It's mildly slashy (male/male relationship),
but can also be viewed purely as a straight relationship song, the same
way Willie's "old married couple" line can be. Both Willie and Laura
love Neil. Sandbaggers doesn't really appeal to me as slash, though I'd
read it for curiosity. I think the women are are more appealing than the
men.

I should probably have volunteeted to put it on the tape, but I
didn't think that many people would want it - and I've been too busy to
think straight lately. My other vids are a big chunk of WiseGuy, 3 Miami
Vice, a couple of Star Treks, original series, a Sherlock, a Columbo (both
humorous), and several movie vids, Lawrence of Arabia, English Patient,
Point Break. Two La Femme Nikitas, which is my current vidding interest.
Most are my own vids, but several were done with vidding partners. At
least half of these are slash oriented, things like LFN, English Patient,
aren't.

I've probably asked before, but are there any other La Femme
Nikita fans here? The writing is awful compared to Sandbaggers, but it's
got fabulous acting from the two leads, and good acting otherwise.
Incredibly dark world, fabulous style, music/visuals. I was just
thinking how good Neil would have been as head of Section One.
