Together Through Life (2009), Pt. 2



I thought of this, the opening scene from The Naked Kiss, after seeing the official video that Sony came up with for this song. Plus I love the look on Constance Towers' face when the guy pulls her wig off....



I am going to Houston--in August to hear Dylan play this (I hope). (Seemed a shame to have the footage of Dylan's driving wasted on a Cadillac commercial....)



Then I saw this song utilized by HBO to accompany an ad for True Blood . And I thought, "If vampires, why not the Japanese?" (No, I didn't actually think that--I simply like Mishima's film and was looking for a reason to use some of its footage. I like the short story on which it's based even more.)
