    Default I think the EU is comming along nicely

    The video's nudity, dim lighting and heavy breathing which builds to a climatic finish while the phrase "let's come together" flashes on the screen has been desribed as "soft porn" and a "waste of taxpayers money".

    Godfrey Bloom of Britain's euro-skeptic UK Independence Party, said the commission's foray onto YouTube "was like watching an elderly relative trying to be cool: Very embarrassing."
    PS Link to news.com.au includes the montage on YouTube embedded in the story. Not work friendly... but it is a government promotion.

    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    I think the more sex we have in political videos, the better. I might actually watch party election broadcasts if there was a bit of slap and tickle.

    You are not mistaken. It is from La fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain.

    What a video!
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    What a stupid, cheap-looking, silly, foolish clip. The ones responsible for its creation and its initial allowance are to be set against the wall for lack of taste, artistry, and the high redundance of foolishness.
    Emotion, passions, and desires are, thus peace is not.
    Emotion: you have it or it has you.

    It reminds me a tiny bit of the love scene montage at the end of Cinema Paradiso.
