Artsy Beer Commercials Satisfy Thirst
They’re surreal, delicate, but gruff. They’re slivers of art direct to your tube. They’re beer commercials.
Great, perhaps the greatest of the great, Documentarian Errol Morris of semi-recent “Fog of War” fame made a massive series of Miller High Life commercials(!!!!) The vignettes are arranged around the American manhood theme.
One of my favorites shows an old man peddling a bike through a snowstorm with a six-pack of Miller clinking in his front basket. The narrator declares, “We don’t need your OPECs.”
