The directorial team Philistine (currently Tim Godsall and Steven Diller) of OPC Family Style directed this PSA in which a boy talks as if he were a grown man. The lad tells us about his wife, how they met in college. For him, it was live at first sight. For her, he says, probably love at second sight.
Then, he continues, last October a doctor found a lump in her breast. He then affirms, “I’m running for my wife.”
Supered messages appear which read: “Run for the Future”/”A Future Without Breast Cancer.”
An end tag informs us that a Run for the Cure event is being held on October 6 to raise funds for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (CBCF).
“Sean” is one of four spots in this public service campaign from agency DARE in which children talk about who they are running for in the future.
The campaign was born through a strategic planning process, built on a compelling goal: with the support of the community, the CBCF will realize its vision of creating a future without breast cancer.
While CBCF’s vision is a clear one, previous Run marketing campaigns had taken a retrospective view, in memory of those who have struggled with the disease. DARE saw the need to re-focus on the central mission, making clear that the Run for the Cure is a step towards change for the future of women across Canada.
The creative, developed by DARE`s executive creative director Paul Little, brought this strategic insight to life using the simple yet powerful concept of children telling us who they are running for in the future. Whether a daughter, wife or granddaughter who might be diagnosed with breast cancer, the campaign highlights that it is a future that they shouldn’t have to face, if we continue to raise funds and work toward finding a cure for breast cancer.
The campaign will be in market through to run day on Sunday, October 6, 2013.
Alec Baldwin Urges Judge To Stand By Dismissal Of Involuntary Manslaughter Case In “Rust” Shooting
Alec Baldwin urged a New Mexico judge on Friday to stand by her decision to skuttle his trial and dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge against the actor in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of a Western movie.
State District Court Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer dismissed the case against Baldwin halfway through a trial in July based on the withholding of evidence by police and prosecutors from the defense in the 2021 shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film "Rust."
The charge against Baldwin was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it can't be revived once any appeals of the decision are exhausted.
Special prosecutor Kari Morrissey recently asked the judge to reconsider, arguing that there were insufficient facts and that Baldwin's due process rights had not been violated.
Baldwin, the lead actor and co-producer on "Rust," was pointing a gun at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during a rehearsal when it went off, killing her and wounding director Joel Souza. Baldwin has said he pulled back the hammer โ but not the trigger โ and the revolver fired.
The case-ending evidence was ammunition that was brought into the sheriff's office in March by a man who said it could be related to Hutchins' killing. Prosecutors said they deemed the ammunition unrelated and unimportant, while Baldwin's lawyers alleged that they "buried" it and filed a successful motion to dismiss the case.
In her decision to dismiss the Baldwin case, Marlowe Sommer described "egregious discovery violations constituting misconduct" by law enforcement and prosecutors, as well as false testimony about physical evidence by a witness during the trial.
Defense counsel says that prosecutors tried to establish a link... Read More
