穿越時空的愛情：當過去的她遇到現在的他
They have a reputation for creating tear-jerking adverts that tug on the heart strings with a moving story played out to a soulful song. And this year's John Lewis advert doesn't disappoint.
英國老牌百貨公司約翰·路易斯以創作催淚廣告著稱，其廣告總是講述一個撥人心絃的感人故事，並且配上攝人心魂的美妙音樂。今年約翰·路易斯的廣告沒有讓人失望。
Unknown actors Alice Issaz and Thomas Vernant play the part of the love struck couple, with Alice embarking on a relationship in the 1920s and Thomas in the present day. The pair never physically meet but their stories run side-by-side as they visit the same romantic haunts and go about their daily lives.
