Joseph Gordon-Levitt's 'Flickering Lights' Video is Gorgeous

Sometimes, it's the subtle things that make the greatest impact.

HitRECord, an online collaborative production company founded by actor and director Joseph Gordon-Levitt, released the above video earlier this week. The two-minute short shows a stunning collection of contributor- and audience-submitted clips of various "flickering lights" -- reflections on rivers, candles on birthday cakes, cell phones scattered across a packed theater.

The concept originated from a poem by HitRECord member Wirrow, called "Give Me All The Flickering Lights," which is recited in the video.

It's simple, beautiful and undoubtably soothing. Take a look for yourself above. You can read the original poem here.
