I agree. This is one of my all time favorite commercials. It's quite poetic--I almost wish it were longer. As an avid Titanic fan, I love the "I almost drowned at 20" part.
I remember seeing this commercial on tv back in the day and loved it instantly. There was a time when even commercials were amazingly well thought out and produced. This was one of them. I was always such a fan of Kate Winslet and to see her recall each iconic role as a modern day woman is extremely satisfying
The music is actually two pieces: the Cranes song 'astronaut' in the front, with another piece that I composed which is featured during the scene in the clock/souvenir shop.
Love her. There is no other actress like her out there. Its weird how she is so younger, she looks alot older. not that she old looking, she just has a very mature face.
I saw this commercial in a movie theatre just after performing in a production of Peter Pan - over half the cast was there, and when she said Neverland we all jumped up and started cheering. It was awesome.
powerful ad and very creative..imagine how the ad was able to interweave's Kate Winslet's lustrous acting career with what the American Express Card stands for
When she says 'By 19, I was penniless and heartbroken,' she has the novel Sense and Sensibility in her hand. So I'm assuming that's what she was talking about.
The most intelligent and beautifully made commercial I would have ever dreamed for my alltime favorite actress ! What a splendid tribute to her unique career - and her so eadearing personality... Thank you SO much for sharing it with us !
You're an amazing actress :] Titanic is my favorite movie ever and I cry every time I watch it. Just watched it tonight, as a matter of fact. Keep up the good acting!
This is a really interesting commercial, and it's not blatantly obvious she's talking about movies she's been in. Sense and Sensibility, Titanic, and Finding Neverland are what clued me in :)
OMG I LOVE KATE WINSLET SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!! She's my idol!! EeeeeeeeeeeK!!! This commercial excites me SO much!! OMG! "...and by 29, I was in Neverland" :D:D:D
they probably said drowning because it works for BOTH hamlet and titanic. I love this commercial so much. i remember the first time I saw it (a while ago) i flipped out every time it played. its crazy clever : )
prison for murder: Heavenly Creatures penniless and heartbroken: Sense and Sensibility almost drowned: Titanic mind started to go: Iris memory erased: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind in neverland: Finding Neverland My favorite actress...especially in Little Children and Finding Neverland.
I love her so much! She is awesome and I think she's a complete role model. Yes, she likes to take her clothes off but she's still an amazing person. Not to mention she is naturally beautiful, unlike most women in Hollywood.
thats a cool advert... i saw it being done in Camden and didnt even notice until my bro pointed out that the person standing next to me was her... i'm really with it heh cleverly done though :)
At 17 I went to prison for murder: Heavenly Creatures At 19 I was pennyless and heartbroken: Sense & Sensiabilty I almost drowned at 20: Titanic My mind started to go at 24: Holy Smoke (maybe? if she said "lost my head", def be Quills) Then I had my memory erased at 28: Eternal Sunshine And by 29, I was in Neverland: Finding Neverland
Let me clear this up for those that think the commercial refers to Hamlet. She was 19 when she did Hamlet and 20 when she did Titanic. When she says in the commercial she was 20 when she almost drowned they are referring to Titanic or she would have said I drowned at 19.
She is without a doubt very brainy. Even though she plays an illiterate in The Reader, she is the polar opposite of that in real life. This in addition, to being the most beautiful woman in the world. A true English rose. Love her!
Wow, did you not hear the ship's horn right before her saying that she nearly drowned?? It was alluding to her role in Titanic! The last time I checked, steamships didn't exist in Shakespeare's time....
I've never heard her talking in English (okay,I'm lame,I know but I watched her movies synchronized) but I like her voice very much,it's kinda calming.
Iris - (Forgets Coffee Cup On Bridge) Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind -(Disappears Behind White Van) Finding Neverland - (Plays With Peter Pans Hat And Captain Hooks' Hook)
THE FILMS SHE IS REFERRING TO AND HOW THEY ARE DEPICTED. Heavenly Creatures - (Walks Behind Railings) Sense and Sensibility - (Picks Up The Book) Titanic - (Stands On River Bridge)
I think (correct me if im worng) that the movies are : Heavenly Creatures, Sense and Sensiblilty, Titanic, Iris, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind and Finding Neverland
this commercial makes me feel nostalgic. I love you Kate, you have one of THE best filmographies of any actress today.
I agree. This is one of my all time favorite commercials. It's quite poetic--I almost wish it were longer. As an avid Titanic fan, I love the "I almost drowned at 20" part.
"I had my memory erased at twenty-eight"
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
I just realized these are her movies! love this.
one of the wittiest and most thoughtful commercials I have seen

No, the lovely and intellectually brillant Kate Winslet! There needs to more like her in this world.
Ahh... thats the best advert i have ever seen.
How could anyone give that a thumbs down?
The music is actually two pieces: the Cranes song 'astronaut' in the front, with another piece that I composed which is featured during the scene in the clock/souvenir shop.
Love her. There is no other actress like her out there.
Its weird how she is so younger, she looks alot older. not that she old looking, she just has a very mature face.
I always loved this spot.

I saw this commercial in a movie theatre just after performing in a production of Peter Pan - over half the cast was there, and when she said Neverland we all jumped up and started cheering. It was awesome.

OMG I LOVE KATE WINSLET SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!
She's my idol!! EeeeeeeeeeeK!!! This commercial excites me SO much!! OMG! "...and by 29, I was in Neverland" :D:D:D
absolutely brilliant!!
I so remember this commercial
the best commercial ever...
they probably said drowning because it works for BOTH hamlet and titanic.
I love this commercial so much.
i remember the first time I saw it (a while ago) i flipped out every time it played. its crazy clever : )
I love this commercial.
i saw this commercial before and i didnt get it because i didnt know who she was, but now i love her and remember this commercial!
I started realized she's talking about her own movies when she said "and by 29, I was in Neverland..."
CREATIVE!!!!! XDDD
She is the best
The group is Cranes and the song is "Astronauts" --great, isn't it?
"I was heart broken" is sense and sensebility
Cranes 😍😍
Amazing commercial! Need to go to that side of London!! love when she says "my real life doesn't need any extra drama..." hahaha
yes "By 19 i was penniless and heart broken" was from Sense and Sensibility...
prison for murder: Heavenly Creatures
penniless and heartbroken: Sense and Sensibility
almost drowned: Titanic
mind started to go: Iris
memory erased: eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
in neverland: Finding Neverland
My favorite actress...especially in Little Children and Finding Neverland.
I love her so much! She is awesome and I think she's a complete role model. Yes, she likes to take her clothes off but she's still an amazing person. Not to mention she is naturally beautiful, unlike most women in Hollywood.
I remember this!
if you look at the commercial more closely she picks up the book Sense and Sensibility when she mentions that part
thats a cool advert... i saw it being done in Camden and didnt even notice until my bro pointed out that the person standing next to me was her... i'm really with it heh cleverly done though :)
i love it!
At 17 I went to prison for murder: Heavenly Creatures
At 19 I was pennyless and heartbroken: Sense & Sensiabilty
I almost drowned at 20: Titanic
My mind started to go at 24: Holy Smoke (maybe? if she said "lost my head", def be Quills)
Then I had my memory erased at 28: Eternal Sunshine
And by 29, I was in Neverland: Finding Neverland
Murder is "Heavenly Creatures"
Heartbroken is "Sense and Sensibility"
Drowned is "Titanic"
Let me clear this up for those that think the commercial refers to Hamlet. She was 19 when she did Hamlet and 20 when she did Titanic. When she says in the commercial she was 20 when she almost drowned they are referring to Titanic or she would have said I drowned at 19.
Good Job Kate Winslet I We Love You
She is without a doubt very brainy. Even though she plays an illiterate in The Reader, she is the polar opposite of that in real life. This in addition, to being the most beautiful woman in the world. A true English rose. Love her!
GENIUS! love Kate too! LOL
It's a great commercial.
@michellerachelwatt no, it's by The Cranes, it's called Astronauts.

Wow, did you not hear the ship's horn right before her saying that she nearly drowned?? It was alluding to her role in Titanic! The last time I checked, steamships didn't exist in Shakespeare's time....
oh wow i remember this commercial. i didn't know that was her in it though!
This is one of my favorite commericals EVER. Does anyone know the music?
