Watch: Martin Scorsese-directed Chanel commercial rocks
Now this is a commercial I can get behind.
After seeing Frank Miller’s uninspired take on a commercial for the new fragrance, Guilty, for Gucci, it’s time for a true auteur to step into the world of commercials, and that’s just what we’ve got, from one of today’s most legendary filmmakers.
Thanks to Outlier (via The Playlist) we have the newest piece of directing from Martin Scorsese, in the form of a one minute advertisement for Chanel’s new fragrance, Bleu. It stars HANNIBAL RISING actor Gaspard Ulliel, and while visually it doesn’t play quite like a Scorsese piece, the energy is definitely there, and yes, that is indeed a Rolling Stones track as the background music. It’s "She Said Yeah," for those wondering.
This thing is breathtakingly beautiful, featuring some fantastic cinematography, and of course, the models/actors here aren’t too hard on the eyes either. It may be a short little commercial, but it’s definitely a must-watch piece of video, so check it out!
