Director Marc Swadel says he made this clip with "300 bucks and one re-used 100 foot reel of 16mm film" - but it's a triumph of style over budget. It's grungy and spacey, with a spinning glitter ball, scratched-in stars, spilt milk, and a dreamy slacker/stoner 'dance' performance from this short-lived but acclaimed Flying Nun combo.

Very cool. Lots of great FX- probably all inside a bolex?
But 100 ft of 16 mm is only about 2 mins 45" !
Cool, thanks for putting all these on here :)

yeah - 2m 45sec - but a lot of repeats, keying over footage with footage, and other lo fi tricks. It was the fact that it didn't work exactly as I thought that makes it even more fun for me.
16mm is damn fun. and the cameras sound and smell nice.
