Levi's - Go Work

[@jdugan1952]

I lived on Wood Street, and worked at the Library. I am now 72 and exploring in my RV. It was a great place at one time! Make more videos.

[@mysticblade35]

Please. The Tree Of Life is brilliant. Not to say that I don't love Hillcoat, because I adore him, but Malick is the godfather of this style. And he still owns it. I will say, Hillcoat is definitely a VERY close successor for this style, because MY GOD is this a great piece

[@ajcali1991]

Wow, this one is pretty awesome!

[@GunslingerXYZ]

I love this commercial because of the music and the visuals--a clear homage to Terrence Malick, I'd say. It's beautiful. John Hillcoat (The Road) is a talented filmmaker. I almost ignore the fact it has anything to do with a company. lol

[@oedipax]

@FilmsUndecided It's from Wagner's Das Rheinhold, the "Vorspiel." Used to wonderful effect in Malick's The New World

[@VMKCapn]

I absolutely love the Malick influence.

[@SoapyCilantro]

very nice, and oh so very true

[@Chico9569]

I remember this as an ad like it was 5 minutes ago, now its 2016

[@trisaprod]

Life is an adventure

[@nicktonic]

Wagner: Das Rheingold Prelude so genius

[@plermpt]

reminds me of terrence malick

[@RunninAD]

It's the consumer choice to buy into the ad campaign. Why can't these videos turn into a discussion of the awesome video and appreciation for the poem set to a video depicting exactly what the author's would envision?

[@allenanb]

quite a few of the ppl in the commercial work for the city i believe.

[@davidmehnert9641]

Hermann Levi (1839-1900) . . . Close friend to Wagner, as was Heinrich Porges . . . Didn't Levi conduct the first full Ring Cycle at Bayreuth? And the first Parsifal as well, until Maestro took the podium and snatched the baton from his hand? I admit it, my love for Levi's IS IS IS IS (at times) positively Wagnerian. . . . GO FORTH!!!!

John: Give Terry your paycheck.

[@robertbarga5192]

This was such a messed up peachy description of the Genocide of Native Americans.

[@MrJennpants]

@ FunnyGuy656 -- several of those people, I know for a fact, live in Braddock. FYI.

@michaeljess99 The prelude to the first act of Das Rheingold by Wagner

[@seanametcalf]

"Go Work." - Says the company that makes their items in other countries.

[@Untoldstories_studio]

What is the name of this song?

[@ThaddeusMarcum]

@tylerdegraaf Green copies off Malick as well, and has stated as much. There is nothing new under the sun anymore, unless it begins with Malick. Give props where they're do, brother.

[@marinadoshkevich4863]

Althis talk about Wagner is rather funny, considering that Germany is currently over run by enemy foreigners…. And Wagner was a musician, Levi Strauss was a poor immigrant and did not know him. Wagner was not an anti semite, simply a man proud of his own heriitage. He was born along time before the Nazi Party was a big item. He had nothing to do with them. They simply used his music for their own ends.

[@madBC77]

anyone have any idea what song this is?

[@TheGrerex]

@michaeljess99 Das Rheingold, Prelude by Wagner.

[@RunninAD]

Godwin's Law

[@oedipax]

@oedipax "Rheingold" rather.

[@Malum09]

it means that John Hillocat (the commercial director) copied Terrence Malick style

[@petelee]

they cut out my favorite scene from George Washington.

[@GiovanniRossiGionreds]

Ho pensato alla stessa cosa...

[@mysticblade35]

Wagner ~ Rheingold: Das Vorspiel

[@rosiechanel]

In the 90's I proudly wore Levi's a Chuck Taylors because they were made in the USA. The quality has diminished while the price has gone up dramatically for a pair of Levi's jeans and a pair of chucks. I no longer wear either product. I buy all my clothing made in the USA. Globalization is a dumb idea unless you're a multi national corporation who can exploit the meek and poor.

[@BlownMacTruck]

Not sure what this actually means?

[@ThaddeusMarcum]

* due

[@BlownMacTruck]

I got KSUpoetWarrior's comment, wasn't clear on yours because of the pronouns.

[@Malum09]

he barely gets his projects off the ground, he should stay with the paycheck...

[@idum01]

no jeans ad. crap!

[@Charlie12241]

If only Levi spent half as much time getting Congress to do it's job as they do on shitty commercials.

[@Holdek]

And he was also anti-semitic. That is a fact.

[@ThaddeusMarcum]

That's two times you corporate A-holes have ripped off Malick with your Levi's ads! You're lucky he lives under a hole and doesn't watch TV, otherwise he'd probably sue you for ripping off New World and Thin Red Line.

[@vacumatic]

I'm sorry, but, this commercial makes me want to puke. Its earnestness and down-home grittiness smells like focus groups farts.

[@Minimalcult]

Terrence Malick RIP OFF! fashion will bastardise art and then sell it to the soulless as real art.
