      Beautiful, sometimes touching. A therapy project that turned into art.

      It's incredibly beautiful, and tells the story very well. With well-composed tunes it goes through costume drama, to animated film, to fantasies with mermaids in the ocean. At first the beauty amazes you, and then you realize just how complex it is.

      The films are different little pieces of the story, some say more than others, some are connected to each other.

      Dead Meat: a great opening. It's a costume drama piece. Very beautiful, dramatic. Fencing scene.

      Parachute: a beautiful scene at a kind of circus place. Deals with the question of what's real or not. Leaves you puzzled.

      Wait For Me: a wet fantasy, so to speak. Mermaids and a Lennon in a boat. Beautiful, embroidered history of lost love.

      Friendly Fire: about the relationship between the girlfriend and the best friend. Lennon plays his late friend Max Leroy.

      Spectacle: seems like a bagatelle at first. You laugh at it, but you will realize it's a bit deeper than you thought.

      Tomorrow: Beautiful song, video is beautiful but doesn't really do the song just.

      On Again, Off Again: connected with the Friendly Fire film. Symbolic way of showing that he's been blind.

      Headlights: sort of a break, it's more like a music video than the other films. Its strenght is it's beauty. Not much of the story in it.

      Would I Be The One: a follow up to Headlights. An animated adventure, beautiful in it's simplicity. Also bears a message.

      Falling Out Of Love: probably the most beautiful of the videos. Takes on where On Again, Off Again left off. It's dramatic, touching, and the end of the story.

      Hypnotic, mesmerizing, entrancing, engaging

      We bought the dual CD/DVD of Friendly Fire after seeing Sean Lennon in concert. I had never listened to Lennon before and simply did not want to miss the opportunity to see the son of one of the most famous (and one of my favorite) musicians ever. I didn't know what to expect and was totally blown away by the magic of his band's sound. I was riveted for the entire performance, and could not wait to see the DVD film.

      The surreality of Sean Lennon's short video was a perfect match for the soundtrack. I can watch it over and over and it always does strange things to my head. The only episode that was a little too much for me was the one that accompanies Tomorrow. I found it deeply disturbing for reasons I do not want to mention because I do not want to spoil it for anyone. Everything else messed with my head in a good way, although the overall tragic theme of betrayal did make me sad.
