Ellie Goulding “Anything Can Happen” (dir. Floria Sigismondi)

Veteran music video and film director Floria Sigismondi creates a surreal, dreamlike world in this video for English pop starlet, Ellie Goulding’s “Anything Can Happen”. The video offers a mythical view of the afterlife, featuring Goulding on a deserted beach scene with weird floating spheres and giant crashing waves, as flashbacks reveal a dramatic car accident and bloodied lover. It’s a well-crafted clip with an engaging, poignant storyline, much more than you can say for most pop videos.
