   The entrance of “Catherine” against the dappled, bronzy background always reminds me of the introduction of “Rachael” in “Blade Runner”.

   “I Don’t Want To Set The World On Fire” – the 1941 version by The Ink Spots.

   I recall this commercial and the tune with fond recollection.

   I just found the Chanel commercial I inquired about before; it’s CHANEL – EDEN ROC If you like this commercial, you should check it out as it’s quite similar but stunning in its own way.

    Isn’t there a Chanel no. 5 commercial from the 1990′s that is to the tune of COME WITH ME, TO THE SEA? It was so provocative and sleek, and I think the “female” star of the commercial was the transexual (born male, but made a stunning woman) who was in the James Bond movie.

    I LOVED this commercial when I was a kid, and still do. Still visually stunning.

    I have waited over 25 years to see this video, so thanks much. My fuzzy recollection deleted the goofy “names” dialog, but the rest of it is proof positive that it stuck in my mind this long for good reason–it’s still the most evocative commercial I’ve ever seen.

    This is probably my favorite TV commercial of all time. Have not seen it in more than 25 years until now on YouTube. I first saw it during my favorite time of life as a youth and seeing it again has brought back those very great memories.
    Many thanks to louisadeck for posting this — it really made my day seeing it again
    after all these years.

    Everyone who likes this commercial needs to watch the Chanel Eden Roc commercial. I’m still looking for the 1990′s perfume commercial where a woman falls in love with a Greek statue of a male. We don’t get commercials like these any more.

    If they were to remake this commercial Charles and Catherine would be replaced by two puerile,A&F style19yo’s… with the names of the characters being changed to something like Hunter or Kaitlyn. (no offense to any Hunter’s or Kaitlyn’s reading).

    Naturally, the girl would say her lines in the most bland ,croaky little baby voice conceivable and the guy would channel just another played-out, tired-ass, second-rate James Dean…and not one scintilla of sophistication in the whole tacky mess.

    This was made when our pop culture still had room for VIBE and SUBTLETY. Before ‘XTREME’ and “OUTTA CONTROL” took over.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for this posting! This was my favorite commercial as a kid. The cinematography – visually stunning. The music. The subtlety – less is definitely more. I haven’t watched TV for about 5 years and this commercial’s why. Current television, both programming and commercials, is insipid and inane! I’ll take a Chanel commercial and School House Rock over American [Idiot] Idol ay day!

    This ad is STILL too cool for skool.
