After making its premier at select private events, Kanye's short film is finally available for public consumption. Runaway is about 30 minutes long, and features a few cuts (some of which we've already heard) from his upcoming album, "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy."
I'll be the first to admit I know nothing about film and cinematography, so I won't comment on the artsy side of thie short. I will, however, say that there isn't much talking going on here. This could've ended up bothering me, but the few spoken lines afforded to West and co-star Selita Ebanks reminded us why neither should take up acting. There are a few previously-unheard snippets of new material, and there are some beautiful scenes to accompany Ebanks' astonishing hotness. Overall, it wasn't as epic as I thought it would be, but it's entertaining. After watching through it, I'm left with a feeling that something about this ambitious project was lost on me. Or maybe it's crazy epic, but I'm just not cultured enough to appreciate it... ;)
See for yourself below!
