This is by far the best NO video since Regret. I lve the 50s imagery that accompanies the lyrics, especially at the tail end when you have people looking at the nuclear testing and watches. Absolutely briliant!!! A+++
Finally saw it for myself by using quicktime. The fifties concept and how the actions were synchronized with the lyrics are very cool. An era that was a utopia suddenly destroyed by an impending evil that people failed to realize because of their complacency. An interesting analysis about the "Turn"'s lyrics.
Don't get me wrong, but after seeing most of the videos they have done since 1993, I seriously wonder why they even bother spending money to do those anymore.
Fan base for New Order isn't the one watching MTV and VH1 surely?
Personally I prefer videos featuring the band, many people didn't enjoy the Jetstream video but I thought that was what a video should be.. promoting the band...
On the other hand, New Order never did like anybody else, and this just prooves they continue.. name another band that were featured in only ONE of their last 8 videos?
What a great vid. A classic New Order tune needs a classic New Order video. And here you have it 
If only MTV actually played some friggin music anymore.
I thought the guy on his knees was going to rip the orange bra off. At least that is what I wanted to see. Is this an official NO video?
Was that Robert Evans as the matador????? the only movie he starred in that did not suck except for his autobio The Kid Stays in The Picture. Kid Notorious!

How about Gorillaz?! Or Sigur Ros.
CRIPES! I DISCOVERED SOMETHING!!
Words cannot express my pride at this! It even made the News section! Ohy, I'm so happy!
Bet this is just a website project though. Like the other crystal one. Its just too random and strage... but very cool. And way to covert. A tiny size 8 font link on an under construction website as the debut for a new video.\
I hope it is though - I'd be chuffed!

I still don't have an opinion about this video though. I don't know if I love it or hate it.
what is there not to like Ricardo? It's art.
Can't say I like the video much to be honest. Like most of Shamburg's work it is more than a little pretentious. Their best videos, in my opinion, were not done by him.

Making a video using snippets from old movies is not very original, is it? I seem to remember seeing this before.

I love the old imagery, but as you say 'beauty is in the eye of the beer holder' :beer3:

Except from Temptation, he never directed a video for them. 
He produced them. Plus I agree w/Ricardo, there is nothing original w/that video.
One of their best videos ever, i find.Getting a real Smiths-covers feeling. Great lyric and image synchronization 
on my knees, falling leaves!

Actually, wife and I still follow Classic VH1 religiously. It's a separate channel from the usual VH1. Classic has two good programs call Alternative and Classic Current. Plus of course they had a interview with New Order a while back.

Well...there must be one other band. The US market prefers to see the band members in the video. This, we all know.
Interestingly enough, JetStream was shown at an American Eagle boutique store the other day and my eyes were glued to the mega flat screen on the wall. No one else was watching. And just the other day, I overheard a kid said that New Order is a new band influenced by The Killers. At that point, I was too lazy to explain anything.
I like the Turn video but probably not going to watch it twice. The whole 50s theme bugs me.
