DANCING IN THE DARK


Hi all!  To be perfectly honest, I kinda wanted to keep this to myself.  I think everyone's experienced the feeling: It's like right after you read an awesome book and can't, just CANNOT, write a review b/c it was that soul-shattering.  And you feel like it's yours.  I've obsessed over many things (the BBC's North and South, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, BDB etc.), and I'll add Matt Luck and Emma Portner's "Dancing in the Dark" to that list.  Ever since I found this vid I've watched it (at least once) every day since.  I thank these dancers so much for this piece.  It's just...breathtaking.



Hope you enjoy!

P.S. I know this post has absolutely nothing to do with books, but I just had to share :-).

  1. Is it weird that this video kinda creeped me out a little? Very creative though. And I love how they are literally dancing in the dark!

    1. Lol :) The quality's better on actual YouTube, but yeah. The relationship explored here is a little different, and I just...love it.

  2. It's amazing. The push/pull/slice/adore aspects of relationships all in three minutes. Thanks for sharing this!

    1. YES!! That's exactly how I feel. The resistance and the contrast of their sharp/smooth movements are amazing. Glad you liked it!

  3. I needed this in my life, thank you for sharing it. I have a hard time with videos of dancing, I'd rather be in the audience, but this was so cool.
