80's Video Clip Week: Stewart Copeland & Stan Ridgway - Don't Box Me In



The two ex-members of The Police and Wall Of Voodoo collaborate on this song for the soundtrack to the film Rumble Fish which was directed by Francis Ford Coppola. Coppola made some great films in the 70's, most people know the two Godfather films and Apocalypse Now, but he also made The Conversation starring Gene Hackman which is a really, really good movie set in San Francisco. Hackman plays a surveillance expert who takes an interesting journey during the course of the film. Unfortunately he hasn't been the same creatively since that decade.
