What do you get when you put the minds behind Killers of the Flower Moon and some of 2023’s best TikToks together? A charming father-daughter collaboration… that also happens to be an ad for Squarespace.
Martin Scorsese teams up with his daughter Francesca Scorsese for this four minute-long clip, which is only a teaser for Squarespace’s upcoming Super Bowl ad. In the video, Martin is working on a short film and struggling to understand the main character: a website. Luckily, Francesca has a solution at the ready. To get inside the mind of a website, one should just build a website.
Technical difficulties ensue, as Francesca tries to walk her father through creating a website. What will his domain name be? What fonts will he use? And does he even know what a URL is? You’ll find all this and more — Rants about aliens! Martin using modern-day slang! Francesca regretting her life choices! — in the teaser. Then tune into the Super Bowl to see the Scorseses’ final product.
In the words of Martin Scorsese, we’re sure it will “slap.”
