If you live in the UK then chances are you have seen the new Gucci advertisement currently airing on our screens. There are not many adverts that makes a big impression on me but I love this one. I love the way she drives with fierceness in some kind of futuristic world and then engages in some girl-on-boy action when she meets the man at the bar. It’s all about a woman who goes for what she wants. Everything about it is sexy as hell. The song is incredible (by Friendly Fires) and greatly enhances this promotional ad.
I thought the female looked mighty familiar but it didn’t immediately hit me who it was until I had watched it a few times. When did I realised who it was I felt a bit stupid, even if I do not know her very well as it was only back in May when I tweeted about how hot she was when I saw her for the first time in True Blood playing Sophie-Anne Leclerq, the vampire queen and temptress. It’s actress Evan Rachel Wood. She is delicious and so lickable. Yum!
Anyway the advert is HOT. Interestingly there are different versions of this commercial – here is the long version, called the Director’s Cut:
There is even a Middle Eastern version of it. As you would expect, it is a conversative cut – they have completely cut out the passionate encounter. See below.
And they have even made a 3D version! I need to go and buy myself the necessary glasses soon as my last pair were converted to geeky specs.
A “Behind the scenes” video. It’s quite interesting seeing how vastly different everything looks on the set of the driving scene and the bar scene.
