"You and Whose Army?" Radiohead/Incendies

I really can't get over the use of Radiohead's "You and Whose Army?" in the film Incendies. It's absolutely haunting.

Best use of a song in a film that I've heard in ages.

YOU MUST SEE INCENDIES in theatres.

Additionally, you know what's real funny? I can't stop listening to Amnesiac when I just bought the new one.

  1. I saw Incendies as well just recently, and "You and Whose Army" was the best track for the job. You'd think that the swelling guitar portion wouldn't match the movie's dark Oedipal plot, but it works soooooooo well.

  2. I definitely wasn't expecting Radiohead to be showcased in this film. I really like how the re-visited it when the daughter-lead was walking. They definitely didn't over do it.

    And that glare from her son at the beginning. It's absolutely riveting.

    Thanks for your thoughts, I wish I got more comments on this blog!
