Posted on October 26, 2010
The real Mad Men (and women) are coming to Independent Lens tonight in the acclaimed documentary Art & Copy. Set your DVRs now or tune in the old-fashioned way at 10 PM on PBS (check local listings). The legendary ad giants that brought you “Just Do It” and “Where’s the Beef?” are all on display in filmmaker Doug Pray’s profile of the Madison Avenue world. Whet the appetite for the film with our new ad slogan generator on the Independent Lens website. Plus, enjoy an entertaining interview with director Doug Pray about all about Art & Copy. You can find that on the new Independent Lens blog. Check out the trailer below and enjoy the show! Note: Like last week’s premiere The Parking Lot Movie, Art & Copy is available on iTunes.
