picspam ; short form - Kate Winslet AE Commercial
(For picspammy; challenge eleven - short form)
For my first attempt at picspammy’s 11th challenge; short form, I decided to go with the 2005 “My Life. My Card.” American Express Commercial featuring Kate Winslet. The first time I saw it, it struck me as being rather clever, with Winslet narrating her ‘life’ through her films, and it is even pretty to boot.

At seventeen I went to prison for murder.
By nineteen I was penniless and heartbroken.
I almost drowned at twenty.
My mind started to go at twenty-four.
Then I had my memory erased at twenty-eight.
And by twenty-nine, I was in Neverland.
My real life doesn’t need any extra drama. That’s why my card is American Express.
The films, in the order in which they were mentioned: Heavenly Creatures, Sense and Sensibility, Titanic, Iris, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, & Finding Neverland.
