This year's Super Bowl had no shortage of great commercials, but 'Loretta' from Google is the one that had every viewer in tears.
. They made us cry. And in one case, an ad made us full-body sob into our light beer cans and chips and dip. If you were watching the Super Bowl yesterday, you probably already know which ad we’re talking about: the Google commercial.
The commercial, entitled “Loretta,” is officially responsible for making an entire nation ugly cry. If you haven’t seen it yet, grab some tissues and make sure you’re not at the office before you hit play. Things start off innocently enough, though the somber piano chords and the person typing the ominous phrase “How to not forget” into Google’s search bar are definitely hints about the emotional roller coaster that’s about to come.
The search reveals that repeating small details is a good way to not forget someone, and from there, the commercial’s narrator begins. Throughout the ad, he tells his Google assistant small details about someone named Loretta, like that she hated his mustache and loved traveling to Alaska. Amid all the reminders, the narrator asks Google to show him photos of him and Loretta, or to play their favorite movie.
