McLaren commemorates the 50 year anniversary of race car driver & designer, Bruce McLaren’s passing with a cinematic commercial.
A rather powerful piece of short film considering it only has a 123 second run-time. The narrative voice over speaks in first person as the ghost of Bruce McLaren, while a beautiful original score plays in the background. As the narrator gets into a back-story explaining what so many view as a tragic end, the narrator reassures us that it was only a beginning of future inspiration.
To do something well is so worthwhile, that to die trying to do it better, cannot be foolhardy.
