BEnton - “Broke Down Dreams”
The brainchild of Director Brent Christy come to life through a mix of Benton’s synthy tunes and the influence of early Michael Mann, Spike Jonze, and late-1980s crime drama. Contrasty and color-soaked scenes, lensing gags, a touch of psychosis, and a through line of nostalgia. What more could one want from a music video?
