SATURDAY SHORT: LADY BLUE SHANGHAI (2010)

I believe a “thank you” is in order for all the companies that are making advertisements less monotonous for their viewers.  David Lynch was, once again, commissioned to make a short to promote a product, and this sponsor, Dior, seems just as unlikely as the last (42 Below Vodka).

To avoid disappointment, be informed that Lynch held back a little on his eldritch style.  It has an otherworldly feel to it, but it’s weirdness pales in comparison to some of his more famous work.

SATURDAY SHORT: A VODKA MOVIE (2008)

42 Below isn’t the only vodka brand to seek out oddball directors to help market their product. Absolut Vodka commissioned Tim, Eric, and Zach to make three commercials for their website. Having carte blanche, all Tim, Eric, and Zach had to do in each commercial was mention the product.

You can find episodes two and three towards the bottom of the uploads section in Eric Wareheim’s YouTube channel.
