The Campaign

"In the commercial, an unforgettable well-wisher does the honors. Oleg Popov, probably the world’s most famous clown, congratulates the world’s second most famous clown, Ronald McDonald." "Popov joins McDonald’s in recalling an eventful life, a life tirelessly dedicated to achieving every clown’s mission: making other people happy. He does it with a hint of melancholy but also immense joy. The film captures the sentiment McDonald’s always has and always will be committed to—staying young at heart, whatever your age."
