Santa Gets A Boyfriend In A Moving Norwegian Ad That Feels Like A Mini Movie
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING No mistletoe necessary. The Independent Spirit Award-worthy ad, titled “When Harry Met Santa”, begins with a shirtless Harry going downstairs on Christmas Eve to get a glass of water and catching Santa delivering presents. By the third year, Harry decides to get more proactive and sleeps on his sofa to wait for Santa’s arrival, who gently wakes Harry up by whispering, “You’re snoring,” and promising to return to him the next year. As the two become closer over the years, a conflict arises when it dawns on them that due to Santa’s long list of Christmas Eve obligations, they only get to relish in their sweet bond once a year and for a brief amount of time. The postal service’s marketing director, Monica Solberg, told LGBTQ Nation that the ad was made “to celebrate the 50th anniversary” of Norway’s decriminalization of homosexuality.
