20 Music Videos Directed By Hollywood's Finest Filmmakers

19. Francis Lawrence: Destiny's Child - "Independent Women, Pt. 1"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lPQZni7I18 Film is the true lifeblood of Destiny's Child 2000 banger as it served as the theme for McG's less-than-average Charlie's Angels reboot. However, the director - who has an established career in music videos - opted out of shooting "Independent Women, Pt.1" and granted that privilege to Francis Lawrence. A wealth of experience in the medium has seen the filmmaker work with Aerosmith, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga and many more, but Lawrence's primary attention now lies with the biggest global franchise phenomenon: The Hunger Games. Having directed Catching Fire (2013) and Mockingjay: Part 1 (2014), his final instalment Mockingjay: Part 2 will hit screens in November this year.
