Usually, we would pass on featuring \u201clive and in-the-moment\u201d videos as an \u201cImage of the Week<\/strong>\u201d on C-U Blogfidential<\/strong> since our general motivation lies in highlighting media that is consciously pre-planned and\/or deliberately edited together. (This is why shaky, uncut, raw footage of ubiquitous Champaign-Urbana<\/strong> events such as rock concerts or theatrical plays, for instance, does not appear here or on our YouTube<\/strong> channel<\/a>.) We must<\/em> make an exception for the following six minutes of joy and happy which has already spoken for itself in a viral, global manner. If you happened to miss the hubbub, it features the luminous actress Tilda Swinton<\/strong> (MOONRISE KINGDOM, JULIA, ADAPTATION, CONCEIVING ADA<\/strong>) leading a full house of Roger Ebert\u2019s Film Festival<\/strong><\/a> devotees in a surprise dance-a-long at the Virginia Theatre<\/strong> on Saturday, April 20<\/strong>, just before the 11 a.m.<\/strong> show of Pablo Berger<\/strong>\u2019s BLANCANIEVES<\/strong>. With a recording of the legendary Barry White<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cYou\u2019re the First, the Last, My Everything<\/strong>\u201d soaring through the newly renovated auditorium and Chaz Ebert<\/strong> getting her boogie on center stage without a second thought, what\u2019s not to like? Thousands worldwide have viewed the video thanks to dozens of media outlets picking up on it, exponentially amplifying the warm fuzzy cushion sorely needed by an \u201cEbertfest<\/strong>\u201d camp suddenly without its namesake and guiding light. Will this inspired glow last? Only time will tell, dearest dancers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Tilda\u201d was recorded for posterity by the Shatterglass Studios<\/strong><\/a> camera teams covering Ebertfest for the UIUC College of Media<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
