WoW Moviewatch: 9 Crimes

The lyrics set up a haunting counterpoint to the on-screen action, and the overall effect evokes a powerful and mournful love story. If you've never seen 9 Crimes, you're in for a treat. And as Allison Roberts says, it gets "bonus points for the use of Matteo Cocconcelli's acoustic cover of 9 Crimes over the credits."

The first time I heard this song was during the credits of a True Blood episode. I immediately googled the lyrics and then bought it off iTunes.
Fantastic tune.

Upon pressing play I yelled across the house: "TURN THE TV DOWN! YOU'RE POLLUTING MY GOOD MUSIC WITH THAT CRAP!"

Can anyone infer why they were fighting? I'm assuming it was a case of mistaken identity, but the narrative gap is bugging me.

There's a frame where he's on a wanted poster.

He was a bad guy. Someone put out a bounty on him. She was one of many who pledged to kill him.

Although not actually stated anywhere, in my mind he ended up on Kael'thas's 'evil' side of the Blood Elf faction split.
But it could be anything really. Lovers on opposite sides.

Still freaking amazing.

Does it make me a sad individual that I actually teared up at the end?
Short, but very amazing work. Her expression change after she unmasked him says it all for me.

It's the Princess Bride gone horribly wrong!
(I thought the poster was a recruitment thing, prob. b/c I just watched Heavy in Your Arms last week.)

Good God I love this song now. Thank you for introducing it to me. 10 listens on Grooveshark just from me so far.
