Teen Suicide in Film History, Part 11: "Mouchette" (2)

"Mouchette", the very classic among all teen suicide movies, was directed by Robert Bresson in 1967 and is based on a novel by George Bernanos, published in 1937. It tells the tragic story of Mouchette (Nadine Nortier, in her only role), a girl just entering adolescence who lives in a rural French village. This video summarizes the film in two parts, with a total running time of 25 minutes. I made it that long so that the whole bunch of people who are in a way responsible for Mouchette's death could fit in. To emphasize the loneliness and despair of the girl, leading her to the fatal decision, I added a new soundtrack: "The Noise", a song written and performed by Toronto-based band Austra, featuring the voice of Katie Stelmanis and included in the album "Feel It Break" (2011). But it also includes the original soundtrack composed by Claudio Monteverdi: "Vespro Della Beata Vergine (Magnificat: Deposuit potentes)" and performed by Jean Wiener.

All my tunes and videos are a work in progress, at a very early stage, particularly the videos, which are very basic--done using cheap software. Lots of development of tunes to come, in all departments, so listen to this stuff with that in mind. Probably spent about a day or so on most tunes, so far. Lot's of new stuff in the pipeline. I can't really give an opinion myself (some of the comparisons are not too obvious to me, and a couple of the artists I don't really like; flattering all the same), but I've been compared to the following artists: SHEEP ON DRUGS, ROBIN HITCHCOCK, SWANS, THROBBING GRISTLE, BAUHAUS, DAVID BOWIE (ME BEING AN INFERIOR ONE, OF COURSE), TUBEWAY ARMY, BONZO DOG DOO-DAH BAND, LOU REED, FAD GADGET, THE MISSION, THE RESIDENTS, THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS, SID BARRETT, LADYTRON, SPARKS, DEPECHE MODE, BRIAN ENO, DAVID BYRNE, PETER MURPHY, PHILIP GLASS, CABARET VOLTAIRE, SWANS, REMAIN IN LIGHT, TALKING HEADS, NEIL INNES, BARNES AND BARNES, ALIEN SEX FIEND, DEVO, !
