Good #StoryTelling based on a #FundamentalHuman truth always unlocks the most PRIMAL RECESSES OF THE HUMAN NATURE....The senile old lady in this story is a metaphor of how the consumer's senses are dulled by the sensory overstimulation of contemporary living. In a world where technical models are asserting more influence on marketing (which is great) the magic of #BreakthroughCreativity remains a relevant catalyst that can shift income statement performances exponentially, rather than incrementally. As always thank you for the inspiration sir.

So so touching. Still, part of the transformative power of Nostalgia I shared on my page earlier today. The relatability was top-notch. The resonance was also great. My high moment in this ad was when Grandma’s face lit up as memories of the past kept flooding with vintage buildings and areas within the town that opened up past memories. This is a great ad, I must say. 👍.

As someone who lost a close relative to dementia and its effects, I find this piece utterly disgraceful. A shameless and conscious attempt to appropriate sufferings of so many people, piggyback fake empathy and profit from that. A moral failure of all parties involved in conceiving and producing this advertisement.

You forgot to mention how emotional this is... certainly someone slicing onions somewhere. Such beautiful advertising, the point of which was not missed.
