Spike Jonze recycles his older concept from Fatboy Slim’s grandiose “Weapon of Choice” video, though only for the needs of commissioned advertising. However, the casting and choreography bring forth such a fundamental shift that it creates a stunningly captivating result that rather evokes associations with Sia’s “Chandelier” video. The part previously played by the charming Christopher Walken is taken over by Margaret Qualley, who glows with energy. I very much hope that this emerging talented actress will finally get a proper role in a feature film, where she will be able to show the same degree of expressiveness that Jonze and Olivia Wilde have allowed her in the small space of their short works.
