It's been a while since we've seen a promo — as they say over in the UK — from Jamie Thraves, who directed the Radiohead classic "Just" and Coldplay "Scientist" both of which trigger huge emotions on a grand scale. This clip for "Two Fingers" — the UK equivalent of The Finger — is something different and smaller, yet just as successful as it effortlessly captures newcomer Jake Bugg leaving his messed-up home in Nottingham for a shot at stardom. So far, so good. --> watch "Two Fingers"
