- rag & bone presents “Why Can’t We Get Along”, a ‘rag & bone Films’ Production starring Kate Mara and Ansel Elgort.
The new short film, which was shot in one day, features an eclectic mix of talent from the worlds of cinematography, music, choreography, dance, and film. Alongside Elgort and Mara, rag & bone tapped eight members of the American Ballet Theater, three HipLet Ballerinas, RUclips sensation Kandi Reign, and three members of Bulletrun Parkour.
Benjamin Millepied co-directed the new rag & bone Films production alongside Aaron Duffy and Bob Partington as well as celebrated cinematographer Darius Khondji to explore the medium of film while shifting perspectives for the viewer.
The track overlay, produced exclusively for rag & bone by Thom Yorke creates a feeling of friction, which is paralleled by the movement of the cast of characters.
Khondji worked closely with camera rig veteran, Tony Hill to deliver a film which seamlessly choreographs not only the dancers and actors featured, but also the cameras used.

Came here for Thom.. stayed for the awesome work.
thom's voice is a drug
I have maybe a very personal, idiosyncratic interpretation of this video. However, it makes sense to me, so I will share. (BTW - this was a beautifully filmed video with 2 actors I really admire. Loved it! The minimal electronic backdrop with Yorke's soulful ambience is something I will never tire of!)
To me this video is really a metaphor about relationships. The leaning of both characters are them falling for each other, of being vulnerable with themselves. And subsequent scenes are with them dancing and going through cycles; playing the same games over and over again. The woman revealing new aspects of herself to the man; the man stuck in the wheel repeating the same pattern over and over. They see both of themselves in the other, they are mirrors of themselves. The woman is surrounded by dancers (representing the walls she puts around herself) and shows hints of vulnerability through them (who she truly is behind those walls). They are both yin & yang; two sides of the same spectrum. The video ends with them gone. They couldn't connect even though they tried. The camera focuses on the cameras that remain, commenting on the artificiality of love in general as how we wish to be perceived rather than how we truly are.
"Why Can't We Get Along" is really a beautiful exploration of this dynamic. It doesn't seek to answer the question, but to explore the question
love this interpretation
Really nice and beautiful interpretation of this shortfilm! 👏👍
Thanks!
thammmmm yerkkkkk tune
The music is dope
You`ll see if it`s dope when you "come down"!!!!
Damn! This Baby Driver sequel is going in a totally unexpected direction! Quite the radical shift in tone. Can't wait for it!
a beautifully syncopated masterpiece !!!!!!!
“rag and bone is not responsible for any dizziness, nausea, or disorientation induced by this video” I can’t be the only one that felt someone dizzy from the insane camera turns 😂
Perfection.
Wow!! It's amazing!! The music, the coreography... The takes!!! Oh my God, those takes were flawless, were just perfect!!! I mean, damn!! It is art and beauty with a camera, at its best.
Devoured - love it.
Amazing art!
Great music by mom dorke
Amazing!
Vertiginously beautiful!
As someone that just broke up this really speaks to me. I love Thom Yorkes straight forwardness in his music.
Tom Ian Holland True, we I guess I mean more in the sense of raw emotion.
Sorry to hear about your breakup. Hope you're doing better now.
thecolorofcolour Thanks, I am a lot better since posting this! Time, looking at the relationship for what it was objectively and meeting new people really has helped.
This was Great!
daamn that camera movements
wonderful yet tough to produce. Bravo.
Honey... that was.......greattttt 👍😬
sick tune!!!
Great concept! Really appriciate this art direction.
Круто!

The credits theme is on point. But that's Thomas for ya!
Why can't we get a loan?..

THOOOOOOOOOM
Kandiiiiiiiii
Nice shoes, guys!
Need to write a disclaimer about MOTION SICKNESS!!!!!
wow
ansel 🥰😔
How is this a short film? It's basically a music video
Fun watch; camera work and rigs are tight as hell
I hear Happy Cycling!
Electric Boogaloo for the hipster era.
*BOOFFF ART POVERE!*
Ahh classic Thom Yorke, not releasing his songs.
amazing work but the music is kills it man.
There will be machines
Looks like a New Order "True Faith" / Art of Noise hybrid.
Next time I drop acid I'm watching this video...
hm, ta okey então
when a bunch of Hipsters take drugs...
BTW the cinematography is pretty great and thm yorke music is on point
Play it at 0.75X it almost becomes bhangra music
Papu thom
turn the volume 150% up and lose myself to it
I wonder if the cinematographer had anything to do with the A$AP forever music video
Hotline Miami beat
X "CW" X
o_O'
Sorry Thom York - Reggie Watts
kevin smit i thought exactly about that hahaha, thom yorke’s lack of creativity becomes obvious
I feel dizzy.
i got dizzy
What.
thumb for tensely laughing human snowflanE.
what is this black magic
I don't get it... lol
This has to be one of the dumbest shits I've ever seen. *_(Great soundtrack, of course)_*
cool shots but lazy uncreative editing. I just cant get past the jump cuts trying to be passed off as edgy with the after effects tv static
So virtue signalling 6 minute commercial
I appreciate the sentiment. But am left wondering about an ad starring two white people surrounded by POC dancing to the sound of a white man wondering why we can't get along. Maybe ask some of the dancers? They might be able to tell you why some people don't want to go along to get along.
bs
KidAKid ye ma boi
The problem I have with Thom's solo work is that it's shit. Too many people are pretending to like it. Feral in my opinion is the worst Radiohead track of all time, and his solo works are just endless variations of it.
nah man, i agree tho that several of thom's solo work doesnt do anything, as some of thom's latest tune kinda generic. but you cant deny that the eraser was/is the tits, tomorrow modern boxes has some great tracks. stating that his solo works are shit is spreading negativity mate dont do such things
Feral is one of my least favorite RH songs but I'm definitely not pretending to like his solo work. The Eraser (with the exception a few tracks) is like a RH b-sides album and it's great, and Tomorrow's Modern Boxes is beautiful ambient electronica (which I loved before I even got into RH). It just depends on taste. People aren't pretending to like this and how you could call all of his solo work a "variation" of Feral is beyond me. Go complain somewhere else if you have to.
The Lone remix of Feral is better than the original imho
sheetcutters "stating that his solo works are shit is spreading negativity mate dont do such things"
Shut up you fucking melon.
Feral is actually one of my favourite Radiohead tracks but I still think this track wasn’t great and I’m v divided on his solo work so like idk, don’t crucify me tho
Pathetic music. How much did they give him for that ?
you are the pathetic one
