    1. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. My favourite things I noticed while I was making it were Jeff Goldblum sticking his tongue out at undercover stuntman Hutch, and Hutch’s expression when the priest says ‘Partners?!’ — looks like he’s just going ‘yep!’

  1. Great vid! I agree, Hutch needs to get a clue and call Starsky! Some of my favorite details:
    • The montage with the coins, and the lyrics “I’m flipping with a coin that’s got a tail on either side”
    • Huggy and Minnie as sort of the Greek Chorus, ha! Plus, Minnie’s arm gesture is perfect for that little crescendo in the music
    • That you didn’t just include their phone calls, but also the times they’ve pretended bananas/shells/wrists were phones
    • The clip from Partners to the lyric “are you quite sure just who you are?” because I’m always here for peeling back the layers to that faked amnesia!

    1. Thank you 😁 and thanks for pointing out your favorite bits. I knew I wanted Minnie in there, and when I tracked down that shot the hand gesture was a lovely surprise. And oh, the faked amnesia… I think that shot is where Hutch realises he’s really crossed a line, painted himself into a corner and it’s all gone very wrong.

    1. Queena, this is an .mov file. What system are you on? You might have to add .mov to the files you are able to accept. I’m assuming you’re not right clicking on the picture, but the link below it? If you want to write to me to see if we can figure this out, drop me a note at flamingoslim at ourlakehouse dot net. I’m sorry you’re having this problem.

  2. Today, it worked. Don’t think I did anything different other than standing on one foot while typing, but it worked! And it is a great vid. Thanks for the offer, Flamingo!

  3. What perfect choices of scenes for a really great song (hadn’t heard it before, so thanks for introducing me to it)! Thanks for the gift.

  4. I love how the image the elves have created for the vid makes Hutch and Starsky look like they are in a Doris Day/Rock Hudson movie, or maybe Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant in ‘Indiscreet’. Many thanks, elves!

  5. Aww this was so great! I love the clips you chose to go with the lyrics. Poor Starsky, waiting by that phone. C’mon Hutch! Make that call!

  6. ACL, you’ve got so much talent! Everything comes together so smoothly and works so well with the lyrics. Thank you.
