James Montgomery of MTV.com, recently sat down and reviewed Green Day's latest video, "Last of the American Girls." He provides some good theories about the video and why director Marc Webb chose to format the video the way he did. It is a pretty good review so I suggest you all watch it below.

It's probably the most theatrical and retro-leaning song on the album, a sort of revved-up take on something from "Bye Bye Birdie" or "West Side Story." And the video - directed by frequent collaborator Marc Webb - is in much the same style, featuring a kinda punky gal and a pair of bopping, popping backup dancers.
