I only just now saw this, and holy crap is it awesome. :D First of all, the song choice was excellent. I went into this expecting Leonard Cohen (I didn't notice the artist, just the song title) and was pleasantly surprised (though I like Leonard Cohen quite a bit as well). I didn't quite understand what you meant by celebrating clichés until I watched it. Every bit of this made me smile and feel all warm and fuzzy (possibly partially because I love a lot of the source material). I even liked the way you used the Dead Lesbian™ cliché- when it happens/has happened it's sad and angry-making and makes me roll my eyes, but it's still representation and history and I liked that you showed that. Like one of the above posters mentioned, it really is like a documentary of femslash set to music! Everything was so in time with the music and I loved the transitions from/into the different sources. They all blended together so well as if they all went together. I also really loved the literalism, it made it fun! :D
Also, wow, I did not know there even was a such day as International Day of Femslash! :)
P.S. I didn't realize this comment was going to be so long, sorry about that. :P
