This is an actual tv commercial from Spain...

For those of you who doent speak Spanish, here is the summary:

The woman goes to the fortuneteller because here husband is always in a bad mood, doesnt talk to here and gets anger fits. She aks what she should do and the advice she gets is:

Well, I know whats up. Have you ever considered that your husband works a lot of hours, everday and that he has a right to come home and be at ease? Always take care of him and serve him El Soberano and he will be happy.

Those where the days, my friend...

Very cool ad, and an extremely nice and easy to underrate Spanish bitch. I could definitely go for a taste of that classy and naughty snatch in a small '70s Madrid apartment.

This woman has a face that bespeaks superb fellatio.

Good find.

Odd the idea that a woman should make it her personal responsibility to make her husband happy.

Further.

There is so much that comes to mind watching this old Spanish ad. What an unthinkably different world from ours it inhabits.

Of course the actual premise of the little story is one that could not be generated by anyone now even ironically.

And if someone tried to film such a commercial these days, how truly terrible it would look. The fortune teller and her crystal ball and even her butler/usher would look all wrong. There would never be just this amount of relative darkness and gloaming -- it would be either much brighter or excessively dark. And so many other things...

That's not to say that I want to go back to 1970s Spain -- I do not. Some great and valuable things have been lost, other and greater ones gained. But the gulf is vast -- this little time capsule might as well be coming to us from another planet.

And I like the fact that the cognac is called El Soberano (The Souvereign)...
