Make like a Butterfly and shed your Cocoon!
If you need to be touched, if a mentor has ever helped you become who you are, if you were ever told “you can’t” and that loudest voice was your own…well, for a cliche commercial, this one hits home.
Butterfly.
A whole movie in a few minutes.
Great art comes from real feeling, and real mentorship, not merely practice or training. Great art is not about perfection, but rather the sharing of one’s heart with others.
I had to cover my face while watching this in a crowded cafe…for fear of looking emotional in public.

OMG! It was for ….Pantene!!! That was a surprise.
This was amazing-thank you so much for sharing it!
You're right. It probably is the best commercial I've ever seen.
Kudos to whomever it was who talked the suits into selling a product this way.
I can’t believe a Pantene commercial made me cry…so moving.
I can't believe it was for Pantene. Hilarious spin. Good commercial.
[...] If you need a little boost…watch this <3 Truly beautiful…and also my favorite song to [...]
Look out Dove!!!
Thank you.
All that to sell us junk for our hair? THAT'S deeper than the film….all that art, music, and beautiful sentiment has an ulterior motive. How effing amerikkkan. We suck.
Don't care if it's an advert, I choked up good and proper! Find beauty where you can, say I!
