An amazing COMMERCIAL that may make you cry

[Lorien]

It achieves what many feature films cannot...in four minutes!

1. Canon (in D?) by Pachelbel

With an uptempo. For a shampoo commercial, that is subtle.

Nicely done, with the uplifting theme of conquering one's limitations.

Thanks for posting this.

17. Yep. And here's a great Pachebel rant:

2. Very cool ... thanks

Smart of Pantene to try a different slant, knowing how digital media is overtaking traditional. This was a good idea.

9. But done for an Indonesian audience

the only four minute ads we see here are for Celebrex. :-(

10. Kind of makes me wonder how you found it then.....

?

[Lorien]

12. A friend found it. I think she was searching for an ad by a famous French

director, and somehow this popped up. I'm assuming a well known director put it together because it's so beautifully executed!

3. the one i'd love to see was a phone company ad where

a woman was crying after she hung up the phone. husband asks what is wrong. she says something to the effect of: "he just called to say i love you mom."

always choked me up.

4. Stunning!

So beautiful, so poignant...and subtle.

You can shine.

Good for Pantene.

6. Damn you, Lorien!

I had to cry in front of Mr Gray because of that.

7. Don't let anyone tell you you can't do something.

This is a great ad. I wonder if it ever if it actually played here.

[HeresyLives]

16. Your're right.

I cried. And I applauded.

Thank you.

18. I love the Canon. Makes me well up every time. Beautiful cinematography.

That 'walking through wheat fields, caressing the stalks' image has become extraordinarily popular since I first saw it used in "Gladiator."

20. I don't get it

I hate to be so contrary to everyone here but I really don't get it. Some guy came up with a tearjerker of a story to sell shampoo. I can't get excited about it.
