Congratulations to David O'Reilly, the man behind the video for the band's current single. At the European Film Awards in Norway last night, the Irish-born, Berlin-based filmmaker, was awarded the 2009 Cartoon d'Or for best short film animation.
His winning film, 'Please Say Something', is an extraordinarily unusual and moving 3D short about the unequal love of a cat and a mouse - set in the distant future.
Earlier in the summer the film won the Golden Bear for Best Short Film at the 59th Berlin International Film Festival.
'A song written to help stop his band from falling apart has become an unsentimental ode to unity - in this instance a bittersweet song for a bittersweet history.' Bono's latest column for the New York Times is a screenplay set in Berlin. Over several decades.
From 'No Line' to 'Moment of Surrender', from 'The Unforgettable Fire' to 'Ultraviolet'. Great live video of ELEVEN tracks from the band's Rose Bowl show in LA last month.
