Music Video Analysis 3 (Johnny Cash - Hurt

This music video has been made as a replay of johnny cash's life. This is done by including clips from old videos and movies that he has been featured in. it also at one point cuts to an old video where you hear him say, "you stay the hell away from me, you hear?"

The editing in this video consists of cuts that are set in time to the music, so that on every first beat of a four beat bar there is a cut to a corresponding scene. other editing features of this film are: the editing of the colour using lighting and filters, this creates a darker feel, and the lightness that is created when he is playing piano.

The end of this video is very famous, this i think is because of the fact that it is very simple yet effective, johnny is shown with the lights going down on him at old performance (in B+W) and then the older Johnny is shown closing the lid of his piano and putting his shaking hands on the lid, this by some people is seen to be him showing use that this s the end of his singing chorea, because months after this video was shot Johnny Cash died.
