Here's a quote regarding the MOVIE called "The Bronswik Affair":

"A fantasy drama of the Bronswik Affair, one of the most insidious plots of the 1960's. This inventive production chronicles the invention of a mind-bending devise which was installed in a particular brand of television set. Almost unbelievable evidence of national retail mind control is presented--a woman who purchased forty boxes of dog food (and she didn't even have a dog), plus other bizarre purchases too strange to list here. It was stopped once; can it be stopped again? (Needless to say, a fiction film which considers the implication of subliminal advertising.)"

Here's another quote regarding the movie:

"A very funny yet deadly serious film, The Bronswik Affair demonstrates the effectiveness of advertising in motivating people to buy products they don't need. It entertains through the comic appeal of its characters and the baroque situations they fall prey to. It also lays bare some facts about the excesses of consumerism prompted by a steady flow of commercials. "


Yay! I'm glad we could settle the matter.
