A cute and reflective video for Oasis single "Little by Little", from the criminally underrated album "Heathen Chemistry", and starring the great Robert Carlyle
("Trainspotting") as a miniature man lost in the streets who interacts or observes Oasis band members, evolving at each interaction where he can finally grow to size of
normal human beings.
He's the leading man but the main star who gets the same screen-time as his is Noel Gallagher who performs the song while seated on a doorstep, playing his guitar and singing in a nice harmony (must give him credit since this song is one of his best moments as a singer, even though we all know Liam is the actually better singer).
It's nicely edited and well-put together, there's interesting and subtle special effects from the moments we follow little Carlyle observing the gigantic pedestrians walking in front of him until the moments he finally reaches their regular size and everything's fine in his life and I'm not gonna tell his next step of this evolution. I guess I like all that because it certainly reflects the song title since everything happens with his character one moment at a time...little by little. And Carlyle is always a pleasure to see him acting, specially when he plays against type and by that I mean when he's not playing the bad guy or the tough guy. He can be a dramatic hero as well.
And I love the song as well. Can't believe it's already 20 years ever since its release. I'm getting old...little by little. 9/10.
