Oh, this is really gorgeous and wonderful greyscale/colour effect. I love your use of juxtapositions, especially the ones with Sarah around 00:50, and how it really emphasizes the change of Derek's life.

Oh god I'm flailing a lot right now with the love. Fantastic vid. I've been so impressed with Brian at how he's played this character. And you used the ballet scene! which is my all time *wibble* moment.

Thank you.

OOOH. As soon as Billy Wisher gave Derek the nod and Andy Goode was labelled the enemy, I was *caught*. This is a really well-done character study; between the way you use Sarah and John juxtaposed against Derek's past (the future), and the way you use colour/desaturation to emphasize the other characters in relation to Derek (*excellent* use, there)...this vid is a pleasure to watch. I especially love the instrumental bridge section, with the chess play leading into the montage of Derek as stone-cold assassin/muscle/soldier. Just...yay! :)
