Art & Copy Trailer http://mitchmckenna.com/post/4052/art-amp-copy-trailer

A powerful new film about advertising and inspiration. It reveals the work and wisdom of some of the most influential advertising creatives of our time — people who’ve profoundly impacted our culture, yet are virtually unknown outside their industry. Exploding forth from advertising’s “creative revolution” of the 1960s, these artists and writers all brought a surprisingly rebellious spirit to their work in a business more often associated with mediocrity or manipulation.
