Pam Thomas directed this spot via Community Films which depicts the love of a T-shirt for what it means–first obtained by a young man when he has it thrown to him by a rock ‘n roll performer from a concert stage. Later, we see his girlfriend touching that shirt which prompts him to take it off for a romantic interlude.
Further down the road, that same gal is now a wife and expectant mother who pulls that same shirt out of the clothes dryer and nuzzles up to it, underscoring her affection for what it represents to her.
Years later, dad is laying on the couch, wearing that shirt, with his young daughter sleeping on him. And finally we see an older girl running about the house wearing and hanging out in what for her is the oversized, comfy shirt.
This progression through the years is set to a cover of Alphaville’s “Forever Young” by Pulse.
Downy keeps shirts like this like new–staying forever young, reminding us of and continuing to create sweet moments.

The interview has been edited for clarity and brevity.
Q: Willem, I read that you called Robert after you saw "The Witch." What did you say?
DAFOE: I want to meet you and I want to know who this filmmaker is.
Q: What is it about him that keeps bringing you back?
DAFOE: Well, if it's good, you come back. When I saw "The Witch," I thought, "Wow, this is a film about a period that I'm not particularly knowledgeable about, but I enter it so easily. This is relevant. It's rooted. It's my story. I'm with these people."
That's quite an incredible trick because a lot of period films, they're always pointing to themselves. They're always sending messages. They're always showing. This had a kind of energy and the kind of physicality and sensuality that I thought, "Who does this? I gotta see this guy." And then I had a wonderful experience in "The Lighthouse" and I played a part that was really fun in "The Northman." So, when he wants to do this passion project and offers me this beautiful role of Professor Von Franz, I say,... Read More
