• Comments: I started to edit this video a year and half ago, but because of dulie and little willpower I finished it only in these days. It was almost a torment this discontinuos editing with months and months of pauses and reflections, but… finally, I’ve finished it!
  Since the beginning, for “Faces” I decided to use a simple and smart editing, the kind that points attention especially to the flow of images and to the various sounds of the music, and at the same time, to the theme too. In fact, the theme is a simple radicalization of Black’s character and ghost, in fact I often use more emphasized effects only to highlight the presence of his alter ego that observes him from behind his shoulders.
  But, at the same time I followed the chronicle already showed in the movie, so in my video too you’ll see a crescendo of situations; another important character will be White, Black’s little brother that, like in the movie, will represent his anchor of salvation in various moments, some times metaphorically too.
  All this is linked to the song “Dig” by Incubus, in which the words talk about every image and situation you’ll see. Since Faces is mostly a chara profile, it doesn’t want to have an original themed video, what I wanted to express in this video is only a tribute to a film that in my opinion can be defined art, so the most hard work was the choice of the most beautiful scenes, the ones most fitted to the lyric, and the emphatization of the theme. I hope you’ll like it or that at least it will make you curious enough to make you want to watch the movie. This said, I‘ll leave you to the video and please enjoy the vision.

  LYRICH e traduzione:
  
  Incubus - Dig
  
  We All Have A Weakness
  But Some Of Ours Are Easier To Identify. Look Me In The Eye
  And Ask For Forgiveness;
  We'll Make A Pact To Never Speak That Word Again
  Yes You Are My Friend.
  We All Have Something That Digs At Us,
  At Least We Dig Each Other
  So When Weakenss Turns My Ego Up
  I Know You'll Count On The Me From Yesterday
  If I Turn Into Another
  Dig Me Up From Under What Is Covering
  The Better Part Of Me
  Sing This Song
  Remind Me That We'll Always Have Each Other
  When Everything Else Is Gone.
  We All Have A Sickness
  That Cleverly Attaches And Multiplies
  No Matter How Hard We Try.
  We All Have Someone That Digs At Us,
  At Least We Dig Each Other
  So When Sickness Turns My Ego Up
  I Know You'll Act As A Clever Medicine.
  If I Turn Into Another
  Dig Me Up From Under What Is Covering
  The Better Part Of Me.
  Sing This Song!
  Remind Me That We'll Always Have Each Other
  When Everything Else Is Gone.
  Oh Each Other....
  When Everything
  Else Is Gone.

  Tutti noi abbiamo almeno un difetto
  ma c’è sempre qualcuno che te lo fa pesare. Guardami negli occhi
  e chiedimi perdono.
  Faremo un patto per non pronunciare mai più quella parola.
  Si, tu sei mio amico. [amica]
  Noi tutti abbiamo qualcosa su cui vengono fatti commenti sgradevoli,
  come noi del resto abbiamo sempre da ridire sugli altri.
  
  Così quando questo difetto accrescerà il mio ego,
  so bene che conterai sul tuo “io” come hai sempre fatto.
  Se mi trasformerò in qualcun’altro
  Cerca di scovare da sotto ciò che sta nascondendo
  la parte migliore di me.
  Canta questa canzone
  e ricordami che avremo sempre qualcuno al nostro fianco
  anche quando tutto il resto è perduto.
  
  Tutti noi abbiamo una malattia
  che insidiosamente si contagia e si diffonde
  nonostante i nostri sforzi.
  Noi tutti abbiamo qualcuno che ci fa commenti sgradevoli,
  come noi del resto abbiamo sempre da ridire sugli altri.
  
  Così quando questo difetto accrescerà il mio ego,
  so bene che agirai come un'efficace medicina.
  Se mi trasformerò in qualcun’altro
  Cerca di scovare da sotto ciò che sta nascondendo
  la parte migliore di me.
  Canta questa canzone
  e ricordami che avremo sempre qualcuno al nostro fianco
  anche quando tutto il resto è perduto.
  Si, qualcuno anche quando tutto il resto è perduto.
