This is actually a masterclass in how to shoot a serious commercial. If half of these RUclips "don't skip this video" charlatans and scammers would adopt some of these old-school techniques they would at least make for more entertaining videos.

God Bless The Late Leslie Nielsen...And I Miss the 70's...

Love the style of the early 70s. So many people lampoon the more extreme fashions of the decade and totally ignore the well done menswear of the earlier part of the decade. Mr. Nielsen looks classically suave here.
