Justin Timberlake - "What Goes Around ...Comes Around"

Michael Jackson gave us Thriller, Justin Timberlake brings back the format and gives us What Goes Around ...Comes Around, a music video which is also a short film. Justin's short film for promotion for his third single is actually his first video to have explicit language, and has (obviously) two versions : the first being the short film version (credited as Director's Cut) which has been released over iTunes and leaked onto YouTube, and the second which is a shortned version of the Director's Cut version for television channels. Rumor has it, that a third 30 minute version of the video will also be released. The video's dialogue was written by Alpha Dog's writer and director Nick Cassavetes and directed by Samuel Bayer. It stars Justin, Scarlett Johansson and Alpha Dog co-star Shawn Hatosy. The video begins with Justin hooking up with Scarlett, which leads to a very intense relationship between the two of them. Later, Hatosy (who is Justin's best friend in the video) falls for Scarlett which leads to finding them kissing. It all ends in a car chase between Justin and Scarlett (who eventually runs away after beign found kissing Shawn by Justin). Johansson's character eventually dies in a car crash while Timberlake sees it all. Very passionate, heavy and intense, this is Justin's longest and greatest video to date. The song is positively reviewed, and it is suggested to be superior to previous SexyBack and My Love. Enjoy!
