The director has taken a break from his animated dog movie to direct a commercial for H&M, and the results are wonderfully what you’d expect. Starring Adrien Brody (“The Darjeeling Limited,” “The Grand Budapest Hotel“), he gets the actor back on the train, this time during a snowstorm that has delayed arrival at the passengers’ destination by 11 1/2 hours. But even if the weather is frightful, Christmas can’t be stopped.

It’s great stuff to start the week with, and a perfect way to get a healthy boost of Christmas spirit.
