TBWA Creates Ethereal Epic For Nissan Patrol

nissan_patrol_tbwa.jpg

We’re not usually a fan of epic grandeur in commercials but we have to admit, we really like this TBWAG1 and TBWAMoscow-created work for the Nissan Patrol. The slow moving, quietly moody spot opens on a Nissan Patrol winding its way through the woods as seemingly forest-dwelling onlookers watch the vehicle’s movements. As it, and the groom within, finally make their arrival at what appears to be a wedding held on the edge of a cliff, the ethereal spot becomes grounded in reality.

Directed by multimedia artist Bruno Aveillan, the spot is scored to the music of Bonobo

Nobody talks about why turning 60 feels more significant for women than men – it’s the age when culture stops pretending you’re sexually viable and you have to rebuild your entire sense of worth from scratch

I’m 65 and I’ve started just admitting immediately when I forget someone’s name instead of pretending I remember — and what shocked me is how many people say they forgot mine too, and how much lighter the conversation feels when we stop performing perfect recall

I have a perfectly good smartphone with a notes app I know how to use, but every Sunday I still write my weekly tasks on a piece of paper that sits on my kitchen counter — because at 65, I’ve learned that seeing something in my own handwriting makes me accountable to myself in a way a screen notification never could

Research suggests the retirees who report the highest life satisfaction aren’t the ones who finally relax — they’re the ones who found a purpose that exists independent of achievement, recognition, or being needed
