I was reminded of this ad last night by a Volkswagen ad that's on Danish TV at the moment. It's very similar, but not as good (I'm willing to admit there might be a bit of nostalgia getting in the way). I can't find the Volkswagen ad but if I do, I'll post it.
This is brilliant; short, simple and direct (and also incredibly depressing but there you go. Another reason it annoys me is it uses the same song by Wrecked Eric that Will Ferrell sings in Stranger than Fiction, which is I film I love). By Cossette.
