Adrien Brody appears in the video as Tori's love interest. Later that year, he won the Oscar for Best Actor for his role in The Pianist. It was a surprise win, as most people thought Jack Nicholson would get the Oscar for his role in About Schmidt.
The video was made to be a unique twist on the fairytale idea: two misfits fall in love and their kiss completes them, turning them fully human.
Scarlet's Walk is a concept album that follows the main character, Scarlet, on a journey across America. The lead single, "A Sorta Fairytale," starts in Los Angeles, where Scarlet has seemingly found her soul mate. "They take the big trip in the classic car up the Pacific Coast highway and across the desert. But as they go on, the masks drop away and they discover the fantasy they have of each other isn't who they really are," Amos explained. "They did care. But somehow they lost each other. Which is why it's only 'A Sorta Fairytale.'"
