I wasn't familiar with the song, so I don't feel like I may have caught all the delicate context, but still -- WOW. Something about Iron and Wine plus the imagery you chose really serves to hammer in just how quintessentially American the Stark's story is, both in his (spectacular) achievements and (even more spectacular) failings.
The way you used (and reused) the newspaper was just brilliant, not to mention poignant. Also, question: is the subtle halo to the footage because it's from a cam DVD? Because I REALLY LIKE IT for this video. It meshes beautifully with the folksy music.
