.PearlJam Video Director Mark Pellington Talks Uncensored ‘Jeremy’: 'The Message Is Still Very Powerful' WearOrange
would be donated to support organizations working to prevent gun violence. “We can prevent gun deaths whether mass shootings, deaths of despair, law enforcement, or accidental.”“Jeremy” was inspired by the suicide of Texas high school student Jeremy Wade Delle, who shot himself in a classroom full of students in 1991, and Pellington’s video mirrors the narrative in classic three-act fashion.
The edit quickly became a source of confusion, with some viewers mistakenly interpreting the ending to mean Jeremy had shot his classmates instead of himself, and that they were covered by their own blood rather than his. Pellington admits that for years this misunderstanding “was a real bummer. I don’t think any filmmaker who has ever been censored or edited isn’t grateful when their original vision gets out there.
“This was the first treatment I ever wrote that was a true narrative — I had always done thematic collages,” he continues. “I wanted to make this an internal, psychological horror story, where we experience Jeremy’s isolation and frustration and bullying. The focus was on the story and the subjective feeling, with the classroom, the subconscious, the forest and the images of his internal fears.”
“The song is epic — it has three acts, like a movie, which has to contribute the lasting appeal of the video now so many years later,” Pellington says. “People still get chills. The visuals are very shocking, but the song is everything. It is just incredible, and the video moves people because of Eddie and Trevor’s performance. They become one.”
