You're definitely going to want to break out the tissues for this video…
Every now and then, a great love story comes along that completely touches our hearts. From Casablanca to Titanic, Hollywood has never failed to take my breath away, but as you can see in the following video, some love stories don't need the silver screen to tug at our heartstrings.
Wrigley's Extra gum isn't exactly synonymous with pure romance, but in just two minutes, their new commercial will make you fall in love…and possibly have you crying like a baby (like it did for me)! We've seen the romantic angle used in advertisements before — like in this equally touching ad from Italian ice cream maker Cornetto. However, nothing has personally touched me like this next adorable spot.
OK, so The Story of Sarah and Juan isn't exactly on par with Jane Austen or the Brontë sisters, yet something about this sweet love story — which follows two teens from high school through college, on through the tough times of being a young adult — is extremely touching. Paired with an emotional version of "Can't Help Falling In Love With You" by Hailey Reinhart, it's easy to forget you're watching a gum commercial.
To me, this is such a pleasant reminder that despite what we think of teens today, true romance isn't completely lost.
