Bright World: So It Goes

What an up and down and inside out whirl of a ride within the serene confines of four walls this was. So much done to the viewer's emotions with so seemingly little effort. That in itself is no small feat. Let's talk about that voice! A rippling stream of comfort and balm for the soul is what Evan Williams' voice is; he never fails to pull the listener into the stories he sings. The acting! Anger, frustration, elation, triumph, and bewilderment portrayed in combination by the uber-talented Versailles series alumni Williams and Sarah Winter. Winter's brilliant and triumphant smile as she walked away at the end was the perfect counter-balance to Williams' stunned expression. This video was brilliantly directed by another Versailles veteran, the multitalented Alexander Vlahos. The nuances within this video were masterful. We were gifted both the obvious story line as well as the story behind the story we watched unfold. I am hungry for more Bright World songs and more videos (as well as movies) directed by Vlahos. Brilliant work!

I was present at the Premiere of the music video of "So It Goes" on June 26,2022, and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. While Evan's song is so beautiful, and the lyrics so meaningful, this song in the video of Alex's vision is truly a thing of beauty. The cathedral setting, Sarah's dancing, her interaction with Evan evoked so many emotions. Art such as this is what keeps us going through the sometimes mundane and tough times, and brings joy.

A wonderful masterpiece. The director masterfully manages the emotionality he wants to communicate, which makes it a refined and moving piece. The delicate performance of Sarah Winter and the interpretive strength of Evan Williams accompany a beautiful and heartbreaking song. Impossible not to cry when you see it. Congratulations to the entire cast and crew.

I can't get over the beauty of it all. The tune is marvelous and this video is just as perfect. Location, light, pov's, aesthetics are all on spot. Such a sophisticated vision that touches soul from beginning to end. When talented people come together, magic really happens. Thank you and kudos to all for this jem!

Thanks to this beautiful song "So It Goes" by Evan Williams, this music video could also be created, on which amazing people worked together, including Alexander Vlahos, who directed it. And the result is bombastic.
