TRY - A Short Film. Jonas Åkerlund, Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins)

Try adalah film pendek yang disutradarai oleh Jonas Åkerlund, cerita ditulis oleh Billy Corgan dan Dario Scardapane , film berdurasi 15 menit ini menceritakan kisah sepasang tunawisma pecandu narkoba di Swedia yaitu Linda dan Max, mereka berdua mempunyai impian untuk mempunyai kehidupan yang layak serta bisa menikmati hangatnya sinar mentari di California. 

Hari-hari mereka tidak jauh dari alkohol dan narkoba, untuk memenuhi kebutuhan hidup sehari-hari mereka kadang mencuri untuk beberapa potong roti, beberapa kaleng bir, dan alkohol pastinya tapi yang terburuk adalah ketika mereka sudah tidak punya uang dan kebutuhan untuk mengkonsumsi narkoba semakin meningkat yang pada akhirnya mereka memutuskan untuk melakukan prostitusi.

Beberapa adegan yang ada di film ini digunakan untuk video klip sebuah lagu dari Smashing Pumpkins yang berjudul Try, Try, Try. Saya sertakan syair dan lagu Try, Try, Try yang mungkin bisa membantu untuk mendalami hubungan antara peran yang dimainkan oleh Linda Santiago dan Max Vitali dengan lirik lagu Smashing Pumpkins ini.

Try, Try, Try

Pop tart What's our mission
Do we know But never listen
For too long They held me under
But I hear It's almost over
In Detroit On a Memphis train
Like you said it's
Down in the heat and the summer rain of
The automatic gauze of your memories
Down in the sleep at the airplane races
Try to hold on
To this heart A little bit longer
Try to hold on
To this love aloud
Try to hold on
For this heart's A little bit colder
Try to hold on To this love
Paperback scrawl your hidden poems
Written around the dried out flowers
Here we are still trading places
To try to hold on
Pop tart Can you envision
A free world Of clearer vision
For too long They held us under
But I know We're getting over
In Detroit With the Nashville tears
Like you said it's
Down in the heat with the broken numbers
Down in the gaze of solemnity
Down in the way you've held together
To try to hold on
To this heart A little bit closer
Try to hold on
To this love aloud
Try to hold on
For this heart's A little bit older
Try to hold on
To this love aloud And we are still alive
Try to hold on And we have survived
Try to hold on And no one should deny
We tried to hold onto the pulse of the feedback current
Into the flow of encrypted movement
Slapback kills the ancient remnants
That try to hold on
Try to hold on To this heart alive
Try to hold on To this love aloud
Try to hold on And we are still alive
Try to hold on And we have survived
Try to hold on
Pop tart You never listen
Skinned knees Try to hold on
Stop start What's our mission
Skinned knees Try to hold on
