Poignant faces, both very striking. Lovely copy too.

I think they could have done a great ambient with the idea, or at least use more media, but still a striking print ad.

Elaborate, please. It's easy to think this and that, it's harder to actually come up with something.

I can already see the reflection waving her hand, what about a TV commercial? They can be great to cast emotions.

Could be a radio commercial with a woman calling herself but not answering.

There's a mirror used here, perhaps something with a mirror in bathrooms?

I'm not sure, I havn't spend hours brainstorming this lol, but, I think this idea has got some legs.

Autant je ne suis pas fan du film, autant ce print est réelement intéressant. L'insight est bien trouvé. C'est une jolie annonce, bien joué.

This is great ambient idea.

meh execution. Once I thought of using Magritte's Not to be reproduced for copyright usage. Fail in my book.

And as for people saying it should be ambient, wonder if it can be pulled off literally.

Well done. Using Magritte in a creative way, for once :-)
The film is différent, but on the same visual style and mood, so works for me.

Like it. The subtleness in the face change is worth looking at it twice. Also captures the sombre mood the subject matter requires.
