Quick, Someone Yell ‘Cut!’
Came across this brilliant ad for the UK Women’s Charity organisation. Starring Keira Knightley, I think the ad is very hard-hitting and it goes straight to the truth of the matter. Donate.
I’d also like to add that I think the very wide spread use of alcohol in Britain is a very definite contributor to domestic violence… and yet there’s still tons of pubs all over the place and Beer is still seen as a staple of British Culture. Well if it remains a staple, you can assume bad behaviour of all kinds will remain as well, no matter how controlled the city is and no matter how many CCTV camera’s watch on.
