this documentary, 'the fine art of separating people from their money,' is mad fresh. tony scott definitely just said he used the same shots in first 'crimson tide' and then a marlboro ad. apparently, he got the job doing 'top gun' after they saw a saab commercial he did with fighter planes in it. " francis coppola does commercials, martin scorcese does commercials." wim wenders thinks that advertising used to emulate art, but now it's the other way around. david lynch did an adidas commercial. a goddamn amazing one. michael j. fox was initially cast in those pepsi commercials after being in 'back to the future.' "i think celebrities are the ideal solution for the lazy advertising man"--some ad industry guy. anthony quinn (!) just compared tony scott to fellini (!) eww, david bowie said 'orientating.' but he's definitely smoking. wow, this advertising guy has a, like, sidekick. he keeps saying 'that's the business.' what the flood?
