Is Levi Trying to Buffalo Us?

It hurt my head. I spent a week turning it over and over in my mind, trying to make sense of the damned thing. Young interracial couple wearing low-slung jeans. Deserted cityscape. Stampeding bison. Tears streaming down their faces as the huge animals thunder around them. What the holy living fuck does it mean?

I’ve been to film school. I’m as post-modern as the next guy. I can deconstruct a subtext with the best of ‘em. But Jesus H. Christ-on-a-Cracker, what the hell is the damned commercial about? Aren’t commercials supposed to sell something? Aren’t they?

Then I finally got it.

Bison don’t like stepping in bullshit any more than we do.
