The most beautiful ad I’ve seen in a long time:

(Interest declared: my wife is exec producer at the production company (Sonny) that represents the director (Steve Rogers). Hire him. He’s darn good.)
Beautifully shot, no doubting that.
But fuck me, if you’re going to go and mince about in black and white, at least have some solid thinking to back up your perfume ponce choice of colour.
Like Stella ‘Ice skating priests’, or Guinness ‘Surfer’, or Levis ‘Drugstore’, or Levis ‘Creek’, or, or, or.
Like jaws 2. Shit.
The most boring ad I’ve seen in a long time.
A step backwards. If this had come first, fair enough. Dull dull dull.
no
I dont get it.
I’m amazed you like this Ben. It‚Äôs surely style over content. And completely lacks the joy of the first spot. Although it‚Äôs more to do with a poor script ‚Äì Steve‚Äôs a great director.
I think it’s beautiful. Beyond that… not much.
Beautiful shit is still shit.
Looks amazing but is still turd – or as you said before ‘dull as ditchwater’.
The DoP should get credit for this. The director should have his head examined for agreeing to film such a shit idea. The creatives should be shot for creating such a shit idea.
Gary Shermans Death Line is one of those little-seen long-forgotten 1970s horror films thats still championed by its core of fans.
dont get it , and i disagree with the thing about the d p its looks awful, wow i was expecting something to happen , anything …….
