Almost a year after the album's release, there's a music video for nearly every song on 808s & Heartbreak (with one for "Robocop" starring Amber Rose on the way), but none are as ambitious as this 11 minute, "See You In My Nightmares"-inspired, mini-movie that debuted over the weekend.

Shot in January and premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival during the summer, We Were Once A Fairytale is the second collaboration between Kanye West and Spike Jonze (the "Flashing Lights" video was the first). This time we're treated to same dark themes except on a grander scale. Summaries have been online for months now, so all that's left to do is click play and let the short film begin.
