It seems to do a very good job of injecting some life into the 60-year-old brand, whilst intelligently dramatising a well-observed truth about the enjoyment of playing the game. I imagine cut-through will also be strong with such a distinctive and arresting graphic style…good choice of music too!

These latest films come off the back of the award-winning 2008 print campaign (Silver Press Lion at Cannes).
