Lewis Cater directs an emotional narrative for Morrissey. 

The video for The Monsters of Pig Alley follows a homebound dreamer (played by Thomas Malloy) as he swaps tea and jam for lights and fame.

It's a tragic rise and fall story of a young aspiring actor, caught between ambition and family. The higher he climbs, the more he loses.

The storyline echoes the theme of the track - from Morrissey's just released new album Make-up is a Lie - and the contrast of the black and white 'acting' vignettes and raw, gritty reality, gives the video a cinematic aesthetic that feels rich and authentic.
