Inglorious baristas: why is Brad Pitt making coffee for 16 abusive dogs?
In new film The Heart of the Beast, the A-lister’s bond with his loyal mutt proves crucial. In Spike Jonze’s new advert, Pitt is rather more subservient
TL;DR
- Brad Pitt's new advert for De'Longhi's Magnifica Duo coffee machine features him being insulted by dogs.
- The advert, directed by Spike Jonze, is almost two minutes long and shows Pitt stumbling cluelessly while dogs shout insults.
- This commercial is seen as a departure from Pitt's previous, less engaging De'Longhi ads and his new movie, "The Heart of the Beast."
- The advert's humor and Pitt's subservient role are suggested to be a strategic move to improve his public image.
- The directing style is reminiscent of Spike Jonze's visionary work.
