AT&T Commercial

In the AT&T commercial, two young children who look to be about 8 years old, are dressed in anachronistic clothing and roaming around the city. They were dressed in Hansel and Gretel-like clothing and were dropping bread crumbs so they could find their way back to their cottage. They first arrived in the city from the subway, so their cottage must not be in walking distance. However, when the bread crumbs run out, they use their handy AT&T phone to GPS how to get back to the cottage, and once the GPS figured out where it was, the children started skipping of back home. This just goes to show how ficticous this commercial is.

This commercial is very ficticous because two young children dressed in antiquated clothing are walking around the city by themselves, and when they need to get back home, they have a cell phone with GPS all ready to go. When they got into the city, the children stepped off of the subway and looked up into the bright blue sky, but once they lost all their bread crumbs and needed to use their phone, it was suddenly night time as they were going back home, following their GPS. The night time showed the AT&T bars in lights coming from buildings, which shows again how ficticous this commercial is. Everything in this commercial was marketing; AT&T was trying to sell their product, so the commercial was very unrealistic.
