I wanna see this movie.

Well done, Cinetic. This music video for a song featured in the film One Day Like Rain, recently posted on YouTube by Cinetic Rights Management, does such a swell job of piquing my curiosity about the actual movie that I might actually seek it out. A sweet, ethereal melody coupled with like-minded visuals? Check. A synopsis, provided on the right hand side of the page, about a teen girl’s ill-fated plan to conquer the world? Check. Jesse Eisenberg? Check. All potent ingredients that suggest an original work I wouldn’t mind on my dinner plate. And since this sales strategy is undeniably smart, I have no qualms about letting it work me over.
