Talking about music videos with exquisite cinematography, recently I watched two version of Massive Attack's Special Cases and really like cold and futuristic mood in those clip. You're probably aware of that but I just discover them a month ago. Both versions seem to me like a mini sci-fi flick with high production value.

Let me drop one more scene from The Devils (1971, Ken Russell). This is totally insane!

This scene was previously taken off from the film but later restored when it's released on DVD. That's why I haven't seen it in the version I watched on VHS.

Thank you very much for all your links, PC. I had never seen the music videos of SPECIAL CASES before. I think these two music videos have a very good concept—telling the stories of both the boy and the girl up until they start falling in love with each other.
The music videos of SPECIAL CASES accidentally reminds me of the novel BRAVE NEW WORLD by Aldous Huxley, who is also connected to THE DEVILS. I like the scene of THE DEVILS that you linked to very much. It is extremely funny.
The NFB website is extremely interesting. I wish I had time to watch all the ten films in this list.
I came across NFB link while reading about the Scottish electronic band "Board of Canada" on wiki which states that the co-founders Mike and Marcus have mentioned the documentary films of the National Film Board of Canada, from which the group's name is derived, as a source of inspiration.
So I went on checking there website. Mannn ... their library got a huge selections of excellent short films and documentaries all the way back to the 50s.
Do yourself a favor, check out this opera please! Sometime high art could be found in such an unlikely place ... jhar har.

I had misunderstood for a long time that BOARD OF CANADA came from Canada. Hahaha.
