Remis Auditorium

British Advertising Films of 2007 (2007,85 min.). Now in its twentieth year at MFA, this collection of award-winning British TV and cinema commercials includes the usual eclectic mix of comedy, cinematographic bravura, hard-hitting PSAs, as well as new executions in long running campaigns. Highlights include exploding paint over a whole housing estate for Sony, and a piece of computer-generated trickery that places Elvis Presley on the same stage as The Sugababes, and Marvin Gaye, Sheryl Crow, and Stevie Wonder describe the daily output of a BBC radio station.

MFA members, seniors, and students $8; general admission $9.

I enjoy watching the British ad awards for the last few years! One of the highlights and I love the Brit sense of humor! Very inventive minds and a different twist from American ads. Though this year there were an ad or two that were American---one of them for a video game for Coke.
