At first I found it strange that people were installing TVs on the train instead of windows, but I started to understand the key idea it was trying to give us as the commercial went. By replacing windows with TVs, the commercial shows how thin the TVs are. And it also used the window concept to show that TVs let people connect with the outside world.
I found it interesting that at first it was dark in the train, but after the TVs were turned on, all the colors and lights appeared. People in the train were excited and they enjoyed the realistic visual effect that the TVs brought. Another thing I found interesting is that when the little girl in the train and the little boy who was coming down from the ladder were waving at each other. And when the train moved, they put their hands on the window or the TV screen as if they can see each other. I like the fact that they put all the basic concepts and elements into the commercial and made an interesting short story out of it without making it boring.
I enjoyed the point that this commercial was short story and the fact that you noticed the girl putting her hand on the window. I feel like someone putting the hand on glass like that is a very childish thing to do. In a way that moment of childishness takes you back to a sort of younger innocence and the awe inspiring moments of being a young explorer of this world. It was as if all the children in the commercial discovering life around the world were meant to make us feel young again like we were discovering something beautiful. A very small gesture that holds deeper feeling.
