This Emotional Supercut of Movie Hugs Will Make It All Better, Promise
Need a hug? How about close to 70? The world could use some healing this week, and there happens to be a perfect two-minute supercut called "Cinematic Hugs" out there just waiting to be your teddy bear.
A Vimeo user named Jose Rico edited the video, using dozens of mostly 21st Century movie clips, set to the music "In The World" by Stephen Rennicks (which is from the "Room" soundtrack).
Here's part of his intro:
"As human beings, we can express our emotions to each other by many different ways. A glance, a touch, or a hug can express much more than 100 words. The hugs have such a power that you can find this simple act in many movies. It doesn't matter the movie's genre, you will always find some of its characters hugging each other for a certain reason."
Some of those hugs are uplifting, others heart-rending (Snape, we'll never forget you!) and the gentle music accentuates each emotion. It's lovely.
