A denim thief underestimates the attachment between a man and his Levis. Played to the song “Very Superstious” by Stevie Wonder. A man has hung his Levis jeans on the balcony of his apartment. A thief lurking in the alley grabs the jeans and puts them on. Unfortunately for the thief, whatever movement the owner makes, who is hanging out in his underwear making lascivious movements towards his partner, the jeans and thereby the thief also makes. The thief is compelled to dance around a parking garage, thrust his hips at a confused passerby on the train, and gyrate up to an old lady in a bus stop. Finally, he gives up and returns the jeans thereby becoming master of his own movements again.

Ad Council, Directing Duo The Hudson Dusters Share “The Rewards” Of Adopting Teens From Foster Care
The Ad Council, partnering with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF) and AdoptUSKids, launched a public service campaign, created pro bono by Edelman, which aims to inspire prospective parents to consider adopting a teen from foster care.
This centerpiece PSA titled “The Rewards”--directed by The Hudson Dusters (Michael Kuhn and Niles Roth) via Greenpoint Pictures--spotlights real adoptive families who have personally experienced the mutual benefits of adoption. This longer form PSA (and cutdown versions) begins with a touching display of openness and vulnerability as adoptive parents reflect on their adoption journeys and their initial questions and hesitations about adopting a teen. Then, in a deeply emotional turn, the adoptive parents witness their children recounting the profound rewards of adoption in their lives. The teens speak of the love they share with their parents and how the decision to become a family is reciprocal. The campaign directs viewers to the AdoptUSKids website to learn more about adopting a teen from foster care.
