Five for Fighting in Five for Fighting: Penguin Lament (2010)

Five for Fighting: Penguin Lament

20106m
Music

Five For Fighting's charismatic front-man John Ondrasik stars in this moody and gorgeous music video, set in a stylized Antarctica of snow and shadows and WHAT? a lifeguard chair? A delicate and wistful song, beautifully sung, and an understated humorous quiddity, make up this short film. (Plus there are nifty small animated Boynton penguins at the end.) Shot on the RED camera, this is cartoonist Sandra Boynton's second venture into film-directing. The song 'Penguin Lament' was written by Sandra Boynton and Michael Ford, for the album 'DOG TRAIN: a Wild Ride on the Rock-and-Roll Side.' For all ages, except 37.
