It was so amazing to finally get to see the original pilot episode of Moonlight ....
I just had to make a video for it, too.

Oh, Shadow... you've made it so much more than it was. How do you do that?!

I could watch Mick flicking that lighter and playing with the flame for a long, long time. That image haunts me, it always has... it's one of the best things about the original pilot, in my opinion. And the song you chose is just perfect.

Thank you. Thank you so much for this video, on this day. :hug:

This is beautiful, Shadow. Is there somewhere online where the original pilot is shown? I would love to see it.

Thanks Red! I was so glad I got it finished in time for today. It's very rare for me to get something done in time for a special occasion!

It finally uploaded onto VImeo so that link is up now too .... I know Vimeo usually works better for you. :hearts:

:cloud9: Ohh, that's the most wonderful comment!
I so agree, there is something utterly haunting about Mick with that lighter. Which is why you'll see that image in the video so many times....
So glad you liked the song, too. (I was a little uncertain, starting, if a six minute song was going to work for a 25 minute presentation!)

Thank you so much, woll. (And thank you, Red, for putting up that link already!!) The pilot is currently up on Youtube in two parts, and there are also links to it in my video description on youtube.)

That's so great to hear! I'm really glad you thought the video featured the best parts of the pilot. I definitely did some picking and choosing, putting in the parts I loved and leaving out anything i didn't like..... ;) I'm really glad you liked the epic song I chose, too. :biggrin:
