"Pringlelina: A Love Story"

Frankenstein's snack tower.

This companion piece to an ad from earlier this year featuring Sabrina Carpenter similarly riffs on the idea of a human-shaped tower of Pringles being brought to life. The ensuing sequence of mishaps provides the opportunity for some brilliant slapstick comedy and director Thomas Ormonde delivers it with aplomb.

The smartest decision in the making of this ad was to avoid actually brining Pringlelina to life. By keeping her entirely static, it not only enables us to recognise that she exists entirely in the head of the human protagonist, it makes the comedy so much more effective than it might have been.

It will never not be funny to watch 'her' head being destroyed by low branch as they romantically cycle together, and the "try not to move" punchline lands brilliantly.
