Crabwalk


Watch the video

This piece is from a year ago. I'm posting it here now for my new friends at The Consumerist.

Original description follows:

The current (June 2005) batch of T-Mobile ads on TV feature Catherine Zeta Jones acting all seductive & superior & shit. In one, she executes this odd, crablike stroll which is supposed to be alluring or something. I find it baffling, so I made a video about it incorporating a quote from T. S. Eliot and a call for Capitalism to dial it back just a bit.
